Motunrayo Rafiu, the law school student who was kidnapped along Kabba-Obajana road last Tuesday, has been released by her abductors.
We had earlier paper reported that Ms Rafiu was kidnapped on her way to resume at the Abuja campus of the Nigerian Law School.
However, it has been confirmed that she was released alongside four others on Saturday.
It was also gathered that they were released after some undisclosed amount of money was paid as ransom.
The victim’s mother, Rafiu Kudirat, confirmed the release.
Although she refused to disclose if any ransom was paid, she had earlier made known her readiness to yield to the demand of five million naira by the abductors.
She said that she would have to give the abductors the money she raised for the girl’s tuition in Nigerian Law School.
Mrs Rafiu also noted that she reported the kidnap at a police station in Ogun State but she was informed that the incident happened outside their jurisdiction.
Mrs Rafiu stated that since Tuesday, no police officer has reached out to her over the case.
Also, when the emergency room for the Kogi State police command was contacted on Thursday, the respondent expressed rude shock and promised to get across to the parents of the victim upon the receipt of the necessary information.
