Gunmen missed their target

The female attendant who was kidnapped this morning in Oba Ile, Akure North Local Government of Ondo State by gunmen who hijacked a school bus has been freed.

Recall that eight gunmen on motorcycles crossed a school bus belonging to Chimola School around 6:45 am when the driver was on a routine of picking pupils.

However, the gunmen missed their target as no pupil was inside the bus when they struck.

According to the nation, the staff who gave her name as Omolayo Ojo while narrating her ordeal said the abductors blocked them and brought out a gun and a battle axe.

According to her: “I saw one brought out gun and the other brought out battle axe. The driver was dragged out they pressed my face down so I didn’t know the route they took.

“When they got to the bush, they brought me down, asked about my name and asked me to cooperate.

“They later told me to run without looking back. I met an old woman who showed me the way to a road.

“An Okada rider gave me N500 and showed me the way to town from where I took a transport to Akure.
