The family of a hearing-impaired widow and mother of seven, Mosunmola Adekunle, has appealed to the Federal Government and security agencies to intensify efforts to secure her release after she was abducted by bandits in Kwara State.
Adekunle was kidnapped on March 22, 2026, alongside seven other worshippers when gunmen invaded an Evangelical Church Winning All congregation in Omugo community, Oro-Ago District of Ifelodun Local Government Area during a church service.
She has since remained in captivity for nearly three months, sparking concern among her family, community members, disability advocates and human rights stakeholders.
Speaking in Ilorin on Friday, the Executive Director of Jibore Foundation, Mrs Joy Bolarin, described Adekunle’s continued captivity as painful and unacceptable, especially given her disability and vulnerable condition.
Bolarin said Adekunle, who is both hearing-impaired and unable to speak, was taken away while worshipping in church, stressing that the attackers did not consider her condition during the invasion.
