Residents of Oda Town in Akure South Local Government Area of Ondo State have apprehended a suspected kidnapper who allegedly disguised himself as a mad person to avoid suspicion.
According to local reports, the suspect had been posing as a mentally unstable individual and stationed himself in front of Ogbe High School, where he reportedly remained for about three days.
Sources said residents grew suspicious of the man’s prolonged and unusual presence around the school environment, prompting closer observation by members of the community.
On Wednesday, the residents reportedly confronted the suspect, leading to his arrest. He was subsequently handed over to relevant authorities for further investigation.
Community members have called for increased vigilance, especially around schools and public places, amid rising security concerns.
