‘The Longer You Wait, The Worse It Gets’- VDM Urges Governor Makinde to Act on Abducted Children

Social media activist Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), has called on Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde to take immediate action to rescue abducted children, warning that delays could worsen the situation.

In a message directed at the governor, VeryDarkMan argued that waiting for the “perfect time” to launch a rescue operation could give kidnappers more time to keep the victims in captivity.

“One last thing Mr Gov, if you’re waiting for the perfect time to go rescue those children, they’ll keep them there for long and even marry them off to other kidnappers.”

He further stated that many people were prepared to support efforts to rescue the victims despite the risks involved.

“We’re ready to enter the bush with you today or tomorrow and we know there’ll be collateral damage and we’re ready for it.”

According to him, his observations of bandit activities over time have led him to believe that a strong response is necessary.

“I’ve studied these bandits for so long I’ve come to realise that if they push and you don’t push back, they’ll see it as a weakness and start asking for levy from Oyo State farmers.”

“The longer the govt. drags its feet, the less chance we have of ever seeing those abducted schoolchildren and teachers alive. It’s more than 4 weeks now. Is this incompetence, or cold political calculation? What kind of administration treats a mass kidnapping like this?”
