Popular Nollywood actress Toyin Abraham has taken to social media to react to the recent terror in Oyo State, Nigeria.…....
Taking to her Instagram page today, May 20th, 2026, Toyin Abraham, who has a strong family ties with Oyo State, expresses utmost displeasure after hearing of the news that 46 people were abducted in the state.
The Oyo State school abduction occurred on Friday morning, May 15, 2026, when heavily armed bandits riding on motorcycles launched a coordinated attack on schools in the Oriire Local Government Area (LGA) near Ogbomoso.
The matter worsened following a video that surfaced online where the kidnappers sent out footage that shows the moment they beheaded one of the school teachers known as Mr Oyedokun.
Further information disclosed that a 2-year-old was also among the 46 people that were abducted by the bandits.
Reacting to the development, Toyin Abraham commended the Oyo State Government for its efforts so far, while also calling on Governor Seyi Makinde to outline measures that would be put in place to prevent similar incidents from happening again.
She wrote, “My heart is deeply heavy over the painful killings and abductions happening in Oyo State and across different parts of Nigeria.
As someone with strong ties to Oyo State through family, culture and love for the people, this tragedy feels very personal to me. It is heartbreaking to see innocent lives lost, families thrown into mourning, children living in fear and communities traumatized by violence.
I mourn especially with the families of the victims, the parents whose children were taken, and everyone affected by the recent attacks in Oriire Local Government and other parts of the state. No Nigerian deserves to live in fear. No child should be afraid to go to school. No family should wake up to news of violence and bloodshed.
I want to sincerely commend the efforts of the security agencies and the Oyo State Government but it is important to appeal for more urgent and decisive actions to secure the release of those still in captivity and strengthen the protection of lives and communities. And please, what is the state government doing to prevent future occurrence?
Nigeria belongs to all of us, and this is a time for unity, compassion and collective responsibility. We cannot normalize violence. We must continue to speak up, support one another and pray for peace to return to our land.
May God comfort every grieving family, heal our nation and protect every innocent life.
Toyin Abraham Ajeyemi.”
