The Oba was said to have left his Imope palace around 11am on Saturday in a vehicle marked W 3J9 Ogun for Ijebu-Ode. However on his way back, his vehicle was intercepted by gunmen suspected to be kidnappers at Oke-Eri.

The kidnappers pulled him out of the car and took him away to an unknown destination, leaving his vehicle on the Ijebu-Ode-Oru-Ibadan Road.
