Widow begs FG to recover remains of Oyo teacher k!lled in captivity
The wife of John Olaleye, one of the two teachers k!lled by terrorists after the abduction of pupils, students and teachers in Oriire Local Government Area of Oyo State, has appealed to the Federal Government and Governor Seyi Makinde to help recover his remains for a dignified burial.
The deceased’s wife and his elder brother and widow made the appeal days after the rescue of the 39 pupils and five surviving teachers who spent 56 days in captivity.
One teacher, Michael Oyedokun, was beheaded by the terrorists in captivity.
It was after the rescue that authorities confirmed that Olaleye was also k!lled, bringing the number of teachers murdered in captivity to two.
In a video sighted online, Olaleye’s widow is seen dancing and praising God when she was informed about the rescue of the abducted teachers and pupils, unaware her husband has been k!lled.
In a video posted online, Olaleye’s widow appealed to the government to recover her husband’s body and assist the family.
“I was heartbroken when I heard that my husband was not among those released,” she said.
“My plea to the government is that they should please, in the name of God, release my husband’s corpse to me.”
She also appealed for educational support for their three children and assistance to help her cater for the family.
“He left three children behind. My appeal is that they should support us concerning these children, especially with their education.
“As for me, I am the one solely responsible for taking care of everything in the house. I am begging the government to have mercy on us and help us in whatever way they can.”
