A student from Plateau State University (PLASU) was kidnapped on Saturday night in an off-campus residential area located in Bokkos Local Government Area, Plateau State. During the abduction, another individual was shot and injured.

Masara Kim, the Acting Public Relations Officer of PLASU, confirmed that the student was abandoned by her captors following a security operation initiated by the university in collaboration with a joint security team. The operation prompted the kidnappers to flee upon seeing the advancing team.

After her recovery, the student was taken to a hospital for a medical examination. The university is actively working with security agencies to ensure the safety of both students and staff within and around the institution.
