Ondo state, Oba Joel Daudu was abducted last Sunday, on the Owo-Ikare Expressway.
Though Oba Daodu regained his freedom three days after, his abduction was condemned by relevant stakeholders in the state.
At this meeting in Ikare-Akoko, these traditional rulers deliberated on the matter and related issues.
The monarchs, under the aegis of De-130 Krowns Club, condemned the abduction of one their colleagues, Oba Daodu, which they described as an abomination.
The traditional rulers want government to take proactive measures against high rate of kidnapping in the country.
