The chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State, Paul Omotoso, has been abducted by unidentified gunmen.
It was learnt that Omotoso was kidnapped hours ago while commuting between Agbado Ekiti and Imesi Ekiti.
According to local sources, the politician was driving on the lonely road when the gunmen ambushed and seized him.
Segun Dipe, a spokesman for APC in Ekiti, said the chairman was alone inside the vehicle when the attack happened.
“He (Omotosho) was driving alone in his vehicle when the gunmen waylaid him around 6:00 p.m. today. They (gunmen) shot at his vehicle and he was whisked away into an unknown destination within the axis,” he said.
He further disclosed that the kidnap incident had been reported to all the security agencies, including the Amotekun Corps and the police in the state.
