A 300 Level female Medicine and Surgery student of Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma, Nigeria, Ms. Oghogho Christiana has been abducted by gunmen.
It was gathered that the student was kidnapped along the Benin-Auchi Expressway in Edo State on Thursday, November 19, while on her way to Ekpoma from Benin City.
A family member, who confirmed the incident on Friday, said the kidnappers have demanded a N7 million ransom for her release.
In a similar development, gunmen also on Friday November 20, reportedly shot dead the driver of a bus of a popular transport company and kidnapped fourteen Abuja-bound passengers on Benin-Auchi Road.
The whereabouts of the passengers remained unknown as the kidnappers are yet to make any contact for ransom.
This kidnapping issue is becoming very worrisome and government needs to do something fast about it.
Meanwhile I pray for the quick release of the victims from the kidnappers dens in JESUS Name.
