The family of Deacon John Olaleye, one of the two teachers killed by terrorists during the abduction of pupils and teachers in Oriire Local Government Area of Oyo State, has appealed to the Federal Government and Governor Seyi Makinde to help recover his remains for a dignified burial.
The deceased’s elder brother and widow made the appeal days after the rescue of the 39 pupils and five surviving teachers who spent 56 days in captivity.
PUNCH Online reports that terrorists killed one teacher and abducted seven teachers and 39 pupils when they attacked three schools in Oriire LGA on May 15, 2026.
One teacher, Michael Oyedokun, was later beheaded by the attackers, who publicly flaunted the act in a video that went viral.
It was after the rescue that authorities confirmed that Olaleye was also killed, bringing the number of teachers killed in captivity to two.
