Police operatives on Thursday foiled an attempt by hoodlums in Ila-Orangun town, Osun State to abduct the Chairman of Orisun Igbomina Broadcasting Network, Mr. Ayodele Agboola.

The incident, which occurred around 3:30 pm along Ajaba Road, saw security men attached to Ayodele Agboola prevent the assailants from using a motorcycle to block his convoy and possibly waylay the media entrepreneur.

Following the situation, “a team of detectives who stormed Oke Ede axis of Ila to smoke out the perpetrators of the act, were viciously attacked with guns, cutlasses, knives and bottles by some gangs seeking to prevent them from combing the neighborhood.”

Meanwhile, Orisun Igbomina FM reports that 6 suspects have so far been picked up by the Anti-Kidnapping Squad of the Nigeria Police in connection with the happening.
