Nollywood actor and producer Lateef Adedimeji, has called on the Nigerian government to address the ongoing issue of insecurity plaguing several states across the country.

In a candid post on his X handle, the thespian while referencing the recent Oyo abductions of students and teachers, stated that no one would have thought that classrooms would be unsafe, and vulnerable children be turned into mere puns in the hands of the leaders.

He berated the government and politicians for solely focusing on the upcoming 2027 elections, while ignoring the calls for the release of the abducted students in Oyo State.

Lateef Adedimeji further urged the government to look into the matter, appealing to them to secure the release of the abductees.

He wrote:
"This is beyond the rhythm of the song and the melody behind the lyrics; it is about our pain, our unwanted reality.

Who would have thought that classrooms would no longer be safe? Who would have thought that vulnerable children would be turned over to puns in the hands of the people we elected?

Election is around the corner, and they’re making promises again. Innocent children are in the loins of daredevils, yet it’s business as usual for them… who do we call?

Dear people in government, pick up the call. You know what to do, we’re begging you. Do it. Bring back the kids and their teachers… Edakun."
