Security Forces Secure Release of 20 Kidnapped Corps Members
Twenty corps members who were abducted in Imo State have regained their freedom. The incident occurred last Thursday while they were traveling from Ibadan to National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) orientation camps in Abia and Akwa Ibom states.
Initially, the kidnappers demanded a ransom of N50 million for each victim, which was later reduced to N5 million per victim. The release of the corps members was facilitated by the military, the Department of State Services (DSS), the Police, and other security agencies.
Following their release, the victims are reportedly receiving medical attention at the DSS Hospital in Owerri.
