Tension has reportedly increased in Kwara State, Nigeria, following reports that suspected terrorists abducted members of the Iru Ekun Security Group, a community security outfit associated with Yoruba nation agitator Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho.

According to a report published by this desk on October 26, 2026, the assailants allegedly seized members of the group and forced them to renounce their involvement in community protection activities.

The abducted members reportedly appealed for their release and were said to have renounced their role in protecting communities in the state.

The Iru Ekun Security Group was established to help protect Yoruba communities in Kwara State against threats from terrorists and kidnappers.

The reported abduction has raised concerns among residents who rely on community security groups to support local safety efforts amid fears of criminal attacks and kidnapping.

The incident could further increase anxiety in affected communities, particularly among residents concerned about the safety of local security personnel and the ability of community groups to continue their activities.

However, further details about the reported incident, including the exact location of the abduction, the number of people affected and the identities of the suspected attackers, were not provided in the report.

Sunday Igboho had not publicly reacted to the reported abduction at the time Daily Post Nigeria published its story.

Authorities had also not been quoted in the report confirming the incident or providing details about possible rescue efforts.

The circumstances surrounding the reported abduction remain unclear. Further official statements are expected to help establish what happened and clarify the situation in the affected communities.
