Unidentified gunmen suspected to be kidnappers have abducted the Eleda of Eda Ile, in the Ekiti East Local Government Area of Ekiti State, Oba Benjamin Oso.
Oba Oso was said to have been kidnapped in the presence of his wife at their farm at Eda Ile on Friday evening.
This happened barely two months after the Obaadu of Ilemeso, in Oye Local Government, Oba David Oyewumi, was abducted by unknown gunmen.
A community source told journalists in Ado Ekiti on Saturday that the monarch and the wife would have been kidnapped but for the plea made by the traditional ruler.
