Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has reacted to the current wave of kidnappings in Oyo State, expressing alarm over the country’s deteriorating security situation.
In a viral video circulating online, the actress questioned the role of security services and expressed concern about the increased activities of bandits across Nigeria.
“This is not about APC is not doing well, Tinubu is not doing well. We ourselves are not ready because we are too afraid. We are too afraid to speak and to stand by the truth,” she said.
Iyabo Ojo also questioned how bandits continue to raid villages, kidnap residents, and carry out attacks despite the presence of military soldiers assigned to safeguard them.
She also demanded that the government and security agencies explain the issues they are encountering, adding that she does not believe criminals are stronger than the Nigerian military.
“What is going on? Are these people more than you military men who are supposed to be in charge of protecting the lives and property of your citizens?” she queried.
The video has stirred emotions online, with many Nigerians agreeing with her concerns and others debating the role of both the government and civilians in combating insecurity.
The actress’ comments have continued to trend on social media as conversations about the rising number of kidnappings and attacks across the country intensify.
