A mob at Ojude Oba are in Iwo, a city in Oyo State, on Thursday, lynched and set on fire two women suspected of attempting to kidnap a child.

The duo, who were said to be in the company of a man, had allegedly gone to kidnap a child around Ori Eru but luck ran out on them and they were caught.

Their male accomplice was said to have escaped.

A witness said that the outburst of the people in Ori Eru attracted passersby who marched the suspects to Oba’s palace where they were set ablaze alive.
