As residents of Abia State and all Nigerians bask in the euphoria of the release of 15 pupils of a private school in Aba, six students have again been kidnapped in Abia State. The victims are students of Federal Government College, Ikot Ekpene, Akwa Ibom State.
It was gathered that the abducted students were going back to school when gunmen ambushed their bus at Ohanze, in Obingwa Local Government Area and took them hostage.

According to the driver of the students’ bus, whose identity could not be ascertained immediately, “when it appeared to the hoodlums that I hesitated to stop, they shot at me and one of the bullets hit my hand and I had to stop. They ordered me out of my vehicle at gunpoint and took the students along with it.”
The driver said the police at Umuobiakwa, in Eastern Ngwa, were alerted when the incident occured, but the matter was not followed up immediately. He said if the police had acted immediately, the abductors would have been tracked down.

Meanwhile, the kidnappers have asked for N2 million ransom. They also threatened to kill the students if their demand was not met and in reasonable time. 
Parents of the affected students have appealed to the kidnappers to release their wards so that they would go back to school and resume academic work. They said they had no money to meet the ransom demand.
When contacted, the PPRO, Abia State Police Command, Mr. Geoffrey Ogbonna, confirmed the incident. He said that efforts were on to effect the release of the students.

I see danger for these new victims. God help them and their families.

oh NO NO NO NO, Not again!

T.A. Orji should pay the ransom and secure the release of the victims asap. Something tells me these guys are more serious this time, and with the military on their trail, time would be of utmost importance.

Good Heavens ! Are we still in Nigeria or is this all a dream ?

Waaaa, aaat? Dis guyz no dey fear?

This is bad.When will peace return to Aba once again?I tot FG has deployed Military men to d town.

Na sleep these soldiers go sleep for Aba?? thought they were supposed to infiltrate the camp of these bas.tards?

Thank MEND for it all!

so much for the 'anti terrorist squad'

are our police good for anything?

I hope the "Leaders" will wake up now with all that is going on,

thats if some of them have not started moving their remaining family out of Nigeria

You need to stay in Aba to understand how daring these guys are. We begged a patrol vehicle of soldiers to guide us when we didn't see any vehicle coming towards PH for like 20 minutes, the soldiers sped off with their vehicles, leaving all of the commuters behind them, at the sight of the kidnappers along Aba-PH road. We all ran into the bushes abandoning the vehicles and slept in the bush till morning.

Kobojunkie:

Thank MEND for it all!

And Obasanjo, if he had engaged brutal force and wiped out the kidnappers the first time it was reported, we would not be going through this now.

well breakdown of law and order
