Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde on Tuesday declared that it will take a special operation to rescue students and teachers abducted in the state.

Addressing the protesters, Makinde assured that the victims will be rescued, stating that efforts are ongoing.

“The operation to rescue them is a special type of operation. As the Governor of Oyo State, I give you assurance that we will bring back those children,” he said.
