The Chairman of Afijio Local Government area of Oyo State, Hon. Samuel Aderemi has been kidnapped by some political thugs.

Aderemi, who is one of those sacked by Governor Seyi Makinde last year, was abducted by thugs who stormed the council in Jobele when the Chairman resumed office.

It was gathered that the rampaging thugs stormed the council Secretariat in an attempt to prevent the sacked Local government chairmen and councillors under the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) from resuming their offices.

Aderemi, after being beaten to stupor by the hoodlums, was whisked away in a bus to an unknown destination. He was later rescued after two hours by security agents.
