Female student, 19, kidnapped in Ondo

• Abductors free Babcock varsity graduate

A 19-year-old girl, Miss Moyinoluwa Abdulkareem, has been abducted at Owo in Owo Local Government Area of Ondo State.
The abduction of the teenage girl, Moyinoluwa, came barely a week after the acting Chief Accountant of Federal Medical Centre (FMC), Mr. Kayode Asaju, was kidnapped in the ancient town of Owo. Asaju, according to family sources, was released after ransom was paid to the kidnappers.
This came as a female graduate of Babcock University, Ilishan-Remo, Ogun State, Justina Anochie, who was recently abducted by some armed men, has regained her freedom. Explaining how Moyinoluwa was kidnapped, her father, Bola Abdulkareem, said the girl was abducted by yet to be identified commercial motorcyclist while returning home from the bank on Friday.
Abdulkareem said Moyinoluwa spoke to him from her kidnapper’s den once. Already, the matter has been reported at the Owo Police ‘A’ Division. Moyinoluwa’s father, who lives on Aralepo Street in Owo, told journalists yesterday said his daughter, who is a student of Prospect High School, Owo, after completing her National Examination Council (NECO)- conducted examination “took an Okada to a bank to withdraw some money”.
He added: “My daughter said he diverted from the road that link to the bank to a bush and she said she asked him why he did so and he said he was avoiding the police checkpoint. “That was what my daughter said she knew until she found herself in a room. Up till now, I did not hear from her and her abductor and he has not demanded any ransom.”
The Division Police Officer (DPO) of ‘A’ in Owo, Mr. Oluwole Fabiyi, who confirmed the abduction, said the police were waiting for the family to furnish them with more information before setting on rescue mission. Meanwhile, the Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said yesterday that Anochie was released unhurt and without ransom payment. Adejobi, a Superintendent of Police, disclosed that operatives attached to Odogbolu Division found the 27-year-old victim after she had been released by the kidnappers in Odogbolu.
He added that the operatives later handed Anochie over to the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) in Ikenne Division whose jurisdiction covers where she was kidnapped. According to him, the forensic investigation and Information Communication Technology (ICT) skills adopted by the police in the rescue operation compelled the kidnappers to release the victim.https://newtelegraphonline.com/female-student-19-kidnapped-ondo/
