Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq on Sunday called for calm following the unfortunate abduction of some Turkish nationals in Edu local government area of the state.
“The Governor is working closely with the security agencies to ensure prompt rescue of the expatriates. The Governor urges the people to go about their normal and lawful businesses and not to entertain any fear, as doing so may embolden the criminals behind the development,” according to a statement by his press secretary, Rafiu Ajakaye.
Police announced the abduction saying the four, who are construction workers, were kidnapped by gunmen at a bar in Kwara State on Saturday night.
An operation to try to rescue them is under way even as no group has said it carried out the abduction.
