The Oyo State Government has demolished a three-bedroom bungalow in the Lako Community along the Aiyegun–Anaye Road axis of Ibadan over its alleged connection to an ongoing kidnapping investigation.

The demolition was carried out on Monday by officials of the Oyo State Ministry of Public Works and Transportation, alongside operatives of the Nigeria Police Force.

According to the state government, the property was identified during investigations into the abduction of Mrs. Olaide Busayo Adegoke John-Paul and her 12-year-old twin sons, Peter and Paul.

The victims were reportedly kidnapped on June 3, 2026, at Elewura in the Challenge area of Ibadan.

Authorities said the demolition forms part of ongoing efforts to tackle kidnapping and other criminal activities across the state.

The government stated that the action demonstrates its commitment to combating insecurity and disrupting criminal operations linked to abduction and related crimes.

It also reaffirmed its determination to ensure that individuals found culpable of criminal acts, as well as properties used in carrying out such offences where permitted by law, are subjected to appropriate legal procedures.
