Few hours after the abduction, a staff of a private school, Omolayo Ojo, who was kidnapped on Thursday morning by some unknown gunmen has been released.
The gunmen at about 6.45 on Thursday abducted her and hijacked the private school’s bus in Oba Ile Estate of Akure North Local Government Area of Ondo State.
The victim said her abductors threatened to kill her if she failed to cooperate with them. She added that she was later released in the bush at Ilara Mokin in Ifedore Local Government Area of the state.
In a reaction, the Principal of the school, Mrs Bolatito Akindemowo confirmed that no pupil was abducted during the incident, adding that security operatives have been briefed of the incident.
