Kidnappers of the three girls from Babington Macaulay Junior Seminary (BMJS) Lagos, have slammed N200 million ransom on the schoolgirls.
The trio of Timilehin Olisa, Tofunmi Popoolaniyan and Deborah Akinayo, all SS2 students, were whisked away from their classroom at about 9:30pm on Monday during prep.
Timilehin, it was learnt, is the daughter of Ven. Victor Ayo Olusa, the Executive Secretary of the Lagos Anglican School Management Board.
The distraught father of one of the girls on Tuesday said the abductors were demanding for N200 million ransom, THE NATION learnt. They were said to have gotten his telephone number from his daughter, and allegedly said their target was the school.
The development was said to have provoked an emergency meeting between the school’s management, the victims’ anxious parents and security agencies, led by Police Commissioner Fatai Owoseni, which lasted till the early hours of Wednesday.
Three other meetings were held between 11am and 4:15pm with the school authorities and security agents.
Meanwhile, a team of military personnel, the police and the Department of State Service (DSS) and the local vigilante group, known as Oyabo,have been deployed to search for the missing girls.

What is happening in our dear country.I pray they are rescued alive. God take control. I can't imagine the trauma the girls are going through.

ReplyDeleteWhat an outrageous ramsom they are demanding.
ReplyDeleteLet the security agents act fast.

I pray for their safe returns. All these Boarding schools should do something about their securities. It is getting out of hands.
ReplyDeleteIf the chibok or others in the North is not an example to follow and put in place strigent securities, i wonder how they were just relaxed thinking it is Lagos and nothing of this sort happens.
May God bring the girls and heal them of any trauma they are passing through AMEN.
May they return in peace..... And the perpetrator apprehended. Amen
ReplyDeleteOh lord save your children.
ReplyDelete200m? They will all rot in jail
ReplyDeleteWe need security companies in Nigeria. You cannot stop this social menace and criminality by praying. The police is incapacitated. The young men roaming the streets should be recruited by private security companies. Since we now know that some individuals like to abduct young ladies it is better that we all become vigilant and recruit security companies to protect schools. However we should scrutinise the security outfits pre and post recruitment. The watcher also has to be watched.

ReplyDeleteI've always thought boarding schools have better security
ReplyDeleteDemanding such money from your fellow poor citizen ,then know see ministers and governors and presidents children kidnap ,bastard sons of a gun.
ReplyDeleteGod please intervene
ReplyDeleteGod please bring them back. If they are agrived with the school why not go and kidnap the principal. I hope they dont touch those girls. Wetin dem wan use 60m do? They should track them down using the cell site of wherever calls are being made by them, it narrows their search. They should use bio-metrics of whatever numbers are used to call. After all during that bio-metric registration they nearly asked me how my papa woo my mama.... they should use it now, that's if the police knows how far, their own is to collect bribe, make them bring this girls back. i hated night prep in school, that Dorothy College, if i remember eh.... Nightmares, rubbish expensive school, porous security with the village shrine behind the hostel and male hostel beside female hostel.....Thank God i came out sane.
