Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has reacted to the recent wave of kidnappings in Oyo State, expressing concern over the worsening insecurity in the country.
In a viral video circulating online, the actress questioned the role of security agencies and lamented over the increasing activities of bandits across different parts of 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 further questioned how bandits continue to invade communities, abduct residents and carry out attacks despite the presence of military personnel meant to protect citizens.
She also called on the government and security agencies to explain the challenges they are facing, insisting that she refuses to 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 since sparked reactions online, with many Nigerians agreeing with her concerns while others debated the responsibility of both the government and citizens in tackling insecurity.
The actress’ remarks continue to trend on social media as discussions grow over the increasing cases of kidnappings and attacks across the country.
