: Ondo Police Averted Organized Bomb Attack in Àkùrè, Arrested Six Suspects.
The Ondo State Police Command has successfully foiled a planned bomb attack in Akure, arresting six suspects and recovering materials believed to be components for Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) on April 15, 2026.
The suspects Adekunle Prosper, Ojo Olumide, Tope Kolawole, Ahmed Salihu, Bolaji Adebowale, and Gbadebo Abidemi—were reportedly involved in assembling explosive devices intended to target government infrastructure, with possible links beyond the state.
Investigations revealed the group operated from a rented apartment in the Oke-Odu area, where police also recovered documents outlining potential targets. The swift intervention of security operatives prevented a likely large-scale disaster.
The Command has urged landlords and property managers to properly screen tenants to avoid their properties being used for criminal activities.
Residents of Ondo State staged a protest against what authorities previously described as “isolated cases” of abduction and killings across the state.
