Residents said the gunmen stormed the victim parents’ home
at Laderin Estate and took him away. The mother of the boy told Premium Times that the gunmen
stormed the house when Steve was playing with a puppy in the compound, while
she (mother) was busy with household chores.
She said the suspected gunmen, including a lady, pretended
to be visitors and knocked the gate of the house, when the boy, who was busy
playing with the dog in the compound, rushed to open the gate.Residents said the boy was immediately taken into a waiting
taxi with no registration number which zoomed off.
They said they chased the abductors to no avail before they
disappeared shooting sporadically in the air.

of the Ogun State Police Command, Abimbola Oyemesi, said all police formations
in the state had been notified and directed to fish out the suspected
kidnappers.
However, the parents of the boy implored anyone with useful
information on the whereabouts of their son to contact them via telephone
