Suspected gunmen on Monday kidnapped one Mr. Monsuru Aderoju, at Oke Agbede area of Igangan, a town in Ibarapa geo-political zone of the state.
According to DailyPost, the kidnap of Aderoju, who is a cassava farmer is coming less than three weeks after the abduction of a farmer along the old Ibadan/ Oyo Road in Ibadan.
The abduction of Aderoju is coming two days after the killing of Mr. Sherifat Adisa, a petroleum dealer who owns Subawah petroleum and two children as well as the kidnap of a medical doctor in Ibarapa North Local Government Area.
In the last three weeks, no fewer than five people have been kidnapped in the state.
Convener of Igangan Development Advocates, Mr. Oladokun Oladiran confirmed the kidnap of Aderoju on Tuesday.
Oladiran said that Aderoju popularly known as Alhaji Monsuru was trailed to his home at Oke Agbède in Igangan, where he was kidnapped Monday evening.
He said, "Monsuru Aderoju by name was kidnapped by unknown strangers suspected to be the now entrenched Fulani kidnapping circus on Monday evening.
"He resides at Oke àgbède Igangan. The Business tycoon supplies cassava, married with one wife and 2kids.
"After he finished 8pm Muslim prayer and decided to go home, according to the information from the reliable source, two of the kidnapper attended the same prayer session.
"However, their strange faces only generated some suspicion and the saga unfolded. They were not thought to be threat. They must have trailed him home and carried out their evil act.
"The state is too bureaucratic about this, there are times you throw away the garb of unnecessary bureaucracy to save lives."
The Oyo state command of the Nigerian Police Force is yet to speak on the latest development.
