Oyo Seeks Public Evidence on Oriire School Abduction as DSS Clears Suspect

The Oyo State Government has asked residents, community leaders, civil society groups, security agencies and other stakeholders to submit memoranda to the Judicial Commission of Inquiry investigating the abduction and killing of pupils and teachers in Esinele and Yawota, Oriire Local Government Area. The panel will examine the circumstances of the attack and assess the security response before, during and after it. The government said its findings would guide measures to improve protection for schools and vulnerable rural communities, especially along border areas. Meanwhile, the DSS has released carpenter Mustapha Marwana after weeks of investigation reportedly found no evidence linking him to the attack or to Ansaru. Security agencies have appealed for credible information that could help identify and arrest those responsible.

The call for public evidence shows the inquiry is seeking wider input beyond official accounts, while the reported losses remain deeply troubling.

Public memoranda may help, but the commission should still weigh every submission carefully rather than treating volume as proof.

Anyone with relevant information should organise dates, documents and clear details before submitting a memorandum to make the inquiry easier to assess.
