Abducted UNILORIN student escapes from kidnappers

An abducted 100-level student of the University of Ilorin, Kwara State, has regained freedom

The victim of the kidnap incident, Moyosore Bright, of the Zoology Department, University of Ilorin, was abducted at about 2 pm on Friday but regained consciousness in a bush, several kilometres away from the Ilorin metropolis, at about 7 pm on the same day.

She had boarded a minibus, popularly called “Korope”, at the school terminus on the main campus alongside other students with the intent of heading to her hostel in the Tanke area, very close to the institution.

A Sunday statement by the Police Public Relations Officer of the state command of the Nigeria Police Force, Toun Ejire-Adeyemi, said the female student had to find her way back to the Ilorin metropolis when she regained consciousness in the bush.

The police spokesperson, who said that there was no mark of violence on the kidnap victim, added that her mobile handset was intact but some items were stolen from her; namely, a gold chain, ATM Cards, and a sum of N3,000.

“Investigation is ongoing to track down the culprits who perpetrated this act.

“The Commissioner of Police, CP Victor Olaiya reassures the public that the command will remain steadfast towards fighting all forms of crimes and criminalities while providing a secure environment for the good people of Kwara,” the statement added.
