The attackers demand 100 million naira for his release. Community leaders have contacted local police stations about the crime.
Odeyemi lives in Ifelodun Local Government Area of Kwara State. The kidnappers invaded the neighborhood during the late night hours. They targeted his residence and forced him to leave with them.

Criminal groups recently attacked the nearby Okoro-Oke community. Those gunmen killed two police officers during their raid. They also kidnapped a Chinese citizen and a Nigerian miner. Authorities have not provided updates on that earlier incident. The region faces ongoing security challenges from armed groups.
Reporters tried to contact the police spokesperson on Tuesday. SP Adetoun Ejire-Adeyemi did not respond to their requests. The lack of communication leaves families without official information. Residents worry about their safety as crimes increase. Local communities seek stronger protection from security forces.
