No fewer than 10 travellers from Ondo State have been abducted by some unknown gunmen along the Obajana-Abuja Highway in Obajana, Kogi State.

The identities of all the victims were still unknown but the owner of the commercial bus which the victims boarded, Mr Abdulganiyu Hakeem, said the vehicle took off in Ajowa Akoko and was stopped by the bandits on the highway, abducting the occupants last week,

He said, “The 10 passengers on the bus including the driver were kidnapped and were led into the bush very close to Obajana in Kogi State. One of the passengers is a student of law school in Abuja.” He further stated that the hoodlums had contacted the families of the victims demanding a sum of N200,000 for driver and N100,000 for each of the remaining passengers before they would regain freedom.

...and so it continues to happen, and nothing happens. What a country.

O God of creation, save us in this country

Now I have an issue with a state PoliceNG command saying because it did not happen in their area of operation, they have no comment on the issue. Do we run a State Police or how is it so difficult to relay info btw Commands? These people departed from Ondo for the love of God

Everyday news! Any day we didnt get report on this matter is not a complete day

These security chiefs are the most incompetent We pray any generation never see again

Oh our dearest Nigeria.... It's falling minute by minute

This has gone beyond forming community/state police. Everyone should owe an AK47 for self defense

God bless Buhari and his service chief.

These ones are learner's ... New comers

We need security reform in our country

Every day... Dats next level

Until all this wicked political leave.. Things will be back normal 👆

This is just the beginning

Everyday one story or the other.. what in God's name are you ogas' at the top doing

From IG's countenance, 'it's their business. Are they not aware of the insecurity in land? Where were they going. The wild cats are on the prowl. This place is a jungle. You move carelessly at your peril' The IG keeps some men for self-safety. No.1 1st!

The way this country is going I think our political class need some advice, because when the poor can't afford to eat the political class and their family may become the next meal. I rest my case

Na wa o. Person no safe like this again o. This insecurity in the country is becoming fast at rise

Every region should form their own security outfit, and from there the country will restructure or divide

Oo god protect us from them

Its is now an every day something

🙆‍♂️🙆‍♂️🙆‍♂️🙆‍♂️🙆‍♂️

If they pay ransom they will use that money to buy equipment to still war against us

Hmm.. It is obvious these gunmen are newbies in this act.

Ya Rabbi forgive us

They should continue
