GUNMEN ABDUCT ALL OCCUPANTS OF AN 18-SEATER BUS IN KOGI
All occupants of an 18-seater bus plying the Itobe/ Ochadamu road in Kogi East Senatorial district have been abducted.
It was gathered that the incident happened around 5pm on Tuesday when the fully loaded Hummer Toyota bus with registration number LAM 979 LG was hijacked at Ajegwu before Ochadamu and all occupants were taken into the bush.
An eyewitness told our correspondent that the kidnappers intercepted the vehicle just behind his car and marched the bus occupants into the bush.
When contacted, the state police public relations officer, SP William Aya, said the command was still compiling information from the DPO in charge of the area.
He promised to get back to our correspondent as soon as he gets the details of the incident.
