The wife of retired Assistant Inspector General of Police, Hakeem Odumosu, has been abducted from her residence in the Arepo area of Ogun State.
Reports indicate that Mrs. Odumosu was kidnapped in the early hours of Friday by heavily armed men who invaded her home, firing sporadically.
Confirming the incident to newsmen in Abeokuta, the spokesperson for the Ogun State Police Command, CSP Omolola Odutola, said the command acted swiftly by deploying operatives to secure her release.
“Information was received regarding the kidnapping of Mrs. Odumosu, a female resident of Aminu Street, Arepo, Ogun State,” Odutola said.
“Reports indicate that she was about to enter her home when four masked men attacked her, dragged her from her Lexus Jeep, and took her through swampy areas to an unknown location.”
According to Odutola, the Divisional Police Officer has led a team of officers to the scene, where they are currently combing the swampy bush area in search of the victim.
Local security forces in the reverine areas, including Baale Warewa and Baale Maaba, have also been engaged to assist in the rescue efforts.
Odutola added, “The State Commissioner of Police, Lanre Ogunlowo, has been briefed, and all covert operations have been deployed to assist with digital intelligence to ensure she is rescued unhurt.”
Efforts are ongoing to locate Mrs. Odumosu and apprehend her abductors.
