Gunmen Kidnap Pupils From School Bus In Edo, March Them Inside Bush

The schoolchildren were reportedly abducted along the Igarra-Auchi Road, near Ikpeshi, Akoko Edo local government area.

Gunmen, on Tuesday, intercepted a school bus belonging to Glory Land Group of Schools in Edo State and abducted two pupils.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria, the vehicle conveying the victims in the company of other pupils was intercepted at gunpoint, and the abductors dragged the two pupils from the vehicle into a bush.


They were said to be returning to Auchi, Etsako West local government area of Edo, after school when they were taken by their abductors.

The schoolchildren were reportedly abducted along the Igarra-Auchi Road, near Ikpeshi, Akoko Edo local government area.

The spokesman for the police command in the state, Kontongs Bello, confirmed the abduction and said policemen, soldiers and vigilantes were combing bushes to rescue the pupils.

He was quoted as saying, “Two students were kidnapped, but efforts are on to rescue them unhurt. Men of the Nigeria Police, soldiers and vigilantes, are already combing bushes to rescue the students.”

The attack comes a few hours after gunmen invaded the staff quarters of the University of Abuja abducting six people.

It was gathered that the gunmen invaded the senior staff quarters at Giri in Gwagwalada Area Council of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) at 1 am on Tuesday and operated for about an hour.

E be tinz. Who did this to Nigeria? Despite scarcity of visa and deliberate appointment dates lock at the various embassies website, the number of youths leaving this country daily is amazing. Anyone who goes to the airport can do the stat. How I wish we had a good government who could empower them and make them apply their energy on developing Nigeria. They're going only to develop a other country while they also develop themselves. Do I blame them?

When trees are getting old, you plant new ones to regenerate. The Nigerian old trees ( our politicians) want to remain in the forest, stiffen the young trees such that, by the time they die, no forest will he left behind as the young trees will become malnourished.

Things are getting out of hands and no one in power seem to care.
Let states police their borders.

These kids are being made to pay the price of the ineptitude of our government.

It is very sad.

I pray for their safe return

angry Mehn...I can't believe what's going on in Nigeria...

Very soon... foreign companies may shut down and evacuate it's citizens back home...same with the foreign Embassies...which means thiss mess will be left alone for Nigerians to sort out...

In the meantime start considering countries close to Nigeria as shield

Just imagine for a moment your little kid is among the kidnapped. Then you will realise the trauma & agony the parents are facing.
Kidnapping is a very terrible & inhumane crime but our failed system has turned it into a lucrative business for criminals.

I still find it difficult to believe that all of these criminal activities carried out by the UGM were carried out by ESN. Because I believe Igbos are more sensible. Why should anyone on earth march school puplis into the Bush. Please whosoever is behind this should stop. We don't want south to be a citadel of doom like the northern part has become

Apc government have introduce a new industry for youth, yet some other youth are jealous of such good opportunity.

Hail your stupid idiotic good for nothing president and his gang of foolish Apc mofos

Now if you unemployed why waste time, seek for one bush were you can find them and request for a job please remember dress cooperate and go with your CV

If possible you can start up your own
A name for your kidnapping industry

Can be 'Buharilistic joint convention for human rehab'

Make sure you have security clearance and buy the form from the DSS and remember to give Abba Karyyi the contract for sewing the official staff clothes for your kidnapping industry he is the recognize tailor certified for such

When I see it was school children being abducted, I know it's going to be gloryland group of school. That school has been a target for kidnappers for a very long time and the kidnappers are taking advantage of the bad road between Igarra and Auchi.

See what APC has reduced Nigeria to. It was never this bad. We used to hear mostly of bokoharam attacks, but now terrorists, kidnappers and herdsmen are causing havoc in all the states.
