OYNA joins families and communities in expressing relief and gratitude following the safe return of the abducted victims. Their freedom is welcome news, and our thoughts remain with everyone affected by the fear, uncertainty, and disruption caused by the incident.
This moment must also strengthen our collective resolve to make our communities safer. Security cannot depend only on reacting after harm has occurred. It requires sustained cooperation, trusted local intelligence, responsible public leadership, and the thoughtful use of technology.
OYNA encourages stakeholders across Yorubaland to support proactive systems that improve real-time awareness, strengthen communication, and help communities identify risks early. These efforts must respect the law, protect human dignity, and work alongside accountable security institutions.
We commend everyone who contributed to the victims’ return and call for continued vigilance, investment, and collaboration so that families can live, learn, work, and travel with greater confidence.
