Sharafadeen Alli, the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in Oyo State, has commended President Bola Tinubu and the nation's security agencies for the successful rescue of the abducted pupils in Oriire Local Government Area. In a statement released on July 12, 2026, Alli described the operation as a testament to the government's commitment to protecting citizens.
Alli emphasized that the rescue demonstrates that criminals will never defeat Nigeria, urging continued support for security forces. He called for sustained efforts to ensure the safety of all Nigerians, particularly in vulnerable communities.
The abduction occurred earlier this week, and security agencies coordinated a swift response leading to the safe return of the pupils. Details of the operation remain limited, but Alli's statement highlighted the professionalism and dedication of the security personnel involved.
