Oyo State Government Commences Rehabilitation Program for Rescued Oriire School Victims

 The Oyo State Government has officially received the 39 schoolchildren and five teachers who were rescued by a joint military and security taskforce after spending 56 days in captivity. Receiving the victims in Ibadan from the command of the Nigerian Army's 2 Division, Governor Seyi Makinde confirmed that the state government has launched a comprehensive medical, psychological, and physical rehabilitation program to support their full recovery and safe return to their families.

The abduction of school children and educators by armed groups creates deep psychological trauma, damages rural education, and disrupts community life. By refusing to pay ransoms and relying on coordinated, intelligence-led military operations, the administration has successfully resisted criminal extortion, while providing state-funded rehabilitation services ensures that the survivors are fully recovered before returning to their daily routines.

This successful rescue and rehabilitation initiative demonstrates a principled, zero-tolerance approach to kidnapping and security challenges. By refusing to compromise with criminal groups and investing in the post-crisis care of affected citizens, the administration deters future school abductions, restores public confidence in public academic security, and strengthens subnational law enforcement.
