Some unknown gunmen have reportedly abducted two female students of Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU), Ago-Iwoye in Ogun state, on Sunday March 14.
It was gathered that the ladies, identified as Tife and Tosin, were picked up by the gunmen in front of their hostel at the school’s Ayetoro campus in Yewa-North Local Government Area of Ogun State.
According to reports, the kidnappers have contacted the victim’s families and are demanding a ransom of N50 million for the release of the students.
Speaking with DAILY POST, a source said,
“The bandits have gone on a manhunt for a female call card voucher bulk dealer and they were shooting sporadically into the air to gain access to the premises of the lady. When they discovered that the gate was closed and they could not enter the premises, they became wild. Unknown to the female students, who were returning to the same house of abode, they were taken away by the bandits. It was this morning that it became known that they were kidnapped.”
The Ogun State Police Command has confirmed the incident.
Nigerians have taken to social media to call for prayers for the ladies as the hashtag #prayforTifeandTosin trends on Twitter.
