Apart from the eight corps members, the driver of the bus was also abducted, he said.
“The corps members were offloaded (from the bus) and taken into the bush,” he said. “The police have recovered the bus.”
“They left here (Uyo) on Friday, and slept over in Abuja. It was when they were proceeding to Sokoto that they were kidnapped,” he said.
He said the incident had been reported to government authorities and security agencies.
A Facebook user, Malachy Blessed, at about 9:14 a.m. on Sunday disclosed in a Facebook post the identity of one of the abducted corps members as Emmanuel Esudue, a graduate of Agricultural and Environmental Engineering, Akwa Ibom State University.
He said the corps member’s phone number has been unreachable since Thursday.
Another victim has been identified as Betty Udofia.
A Facebook user, Edidiong Richard, said the kidnappers have contacted Ms Udofia’s parents, and that they were demanding N4 million ransom.
When contacted the police spokesperson in Zamfara, Yazid Abubakar, Monday morning, he said was going to verify the incident and get back to our reporter.

Tinubu’s wife Oluremi asks Nigerians to lower their expectations of her husband, says government can’t do everything for them First Lady Oluremi Tinubu has asked Nigerians to lower their expectations of her husband, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, saying the government cannot do everything for them.
The president’s wife gave the admonition on Wednesday while hosting the National Executive of the National Council for Women Societies (NCWS) in her office at the State House, Abuja.
“We cannot wait for government to do everything. We must lend a helping hand to everyone around us,” she said.
She urged all women to ensure youths are guided to follow the path of good values and morals.
She underscored the need for all women to pursue a way to take the youth out of the clutches of the negative aspects of social media.
In her remarks, Lau said the NCWS would partner with the first lady on her Renewed Hope Initiative pet project.
Meanwhile, former First Lady Patience Jonathan yesterday visited Mrs. Tinubu and promised her support to achieve the goals of assisting the needy in society.
She said it was imperative for her as a former first lady to also support and encourage Mrs. Tinubu on things that would move the nation forward.
“You’re one of the women that I looked forward to, because you can make Nigerian women proud, I’m here to encourage and support you because we’re one country and our country must move forward.
“Twenty four hours, I’m with you, call me anytime, any day, I’ll work with you for the country to move forward and to be better because it’s our country, we have no other place to go.” SOURCE: https:///tinubus-wife-oluremi-asks-nigerians-to-lower-their-expectations-of-her-husband-says-government-cant-do-everything-for-them/
