Oyo State Government has demolished a building allegedly used as a hideout by kidnappers involved in the abduction of the younger sister of former Minister of Power, Chief Bayo Adelabu, and her children.

The facility, a three-bedroom bungalow, is located in the Lako Community, Aiyegun- Anaye road area of Ibadan, the State capital.

The demolition exercise was carried out on Monday by officials of the Oyo State Ministry of Public Works and Transportation.

The action, according to the state government, underscores the commitment of Governor Seyi Makinde's administration to combating insecurity and dismantling criminal networks operating within Oyo State.
