Kidnappers of six pupils of Igbonla
Model College, Epe, Lagos State, have contacted some parents of the
victims, demanding N1bn ransom to release them.
SUNDAY PUNCH learnt that the
parents were contacted on Saturday and allowed to briefly speak with
their children. While two of them were asked to pay N400m each, another
two were told to raise N100m per child.
They were reportedly told to meet with the school authorities and the state government to raise the money.
However, details of ransoms demanded
from the remaining parents had yet to be ascertained by our
correspondent as of the time of filing this report.
The gunmen had gained entry into the
school premises at about 6am on Thursday through the creek at the back
of the college and headed for the boys’ hostel after breaking the school
fence.
They broke the hostel doors, seized 10 senior secondary school pupils and led them to the shore where their boat was parked.http://punchng.com/kidnappers-demand-n1bn-ransom-for-four-abducted-lagos-pupils/
