Some unknown gunmen have reportedly laid ambush for an 18 seater passenger bus along the Akure/Ikere road and abducted ten travellers including the driver of the bus.

TVC reported that the bus was travelling from Akure to Ado-Ekiti through the Akure/Ikere-Ekiti road before it was ambushed at one of the bad spots on the route.
