Release of 20 medical students and others. We confirm the release of our brothers and sisters and some other Nigerians who have been in captivity on Friday 23rd August 2024 in Ntunkon forest, Benue State. Without any ransom paid.

Contrary to some social media posts and unconfirmed stories that some money was paid, no kobo was paid to release them. They were actually rescued tactically and professionally. We commend the security agencies, locals, and ONSA for their commitment and resilience.

Thanks to you all

Muyiwa Adejobi (Police Spokesperson)

Highly sus

"...no kobo was paid to release them".

If you believe this, then you will believe Daddy G.O. that $1 will soon be =₦1.

So what happened to their abductors Mr Force PRO? No one of them was captured or shot? It was even alleged that the kidnappers contacted the families of the poor doctors. Perhaps ransome has been paid as usual only for the police statement to be debunked later. You can only continue to fool yourself

To believe our NPF these days, sometimes you need to swallow paracetamol first make you no come get unnecessary headache.

What about the kidnappers? They talk to us as if we are dummies.

So the kidnappers released them and ran away? You couldn't arrest even 1 of them? Or "they escaped with gunshot injuries" as usual

STORY!
Thank God for their safe release.

Okay

Lori iro

Until bandits start flaunting ransom on tictok again

We want to believe so. Government at all levels need to do more in terms of security and protection across the Country.

This people should be ashamed of themselves.

The kidnappers escaped with gunshot injuries on their heads, shoulders, knell and toes.
Thank God for the life of innocent victims

Probably the abductors gave their lives to Jesus and released them abi...... Continue

Why are these once sympathetic to kidnappers.
Why are they pained the kidnappers did not get anything

But money was paid and gifts were given in exchange.


They added by saying they rescued them tactically and professionally. They should at least describe how the mission impossible became possible by describing what happened to the kidnappers. Shey they put them to flight ni or they showed them mercy

Lamba

Where are the kidnappers? Why weren't they paraded the way yahoo Boys or victims of circumstances who was grabbed in black Maria's are shown to the public?

Something stinks in this story?

Awon were iniro aye gbogbo

This people always hoping on lies

Believe this at your own peril

On sighting the presence of the police and Anticipating the superior fire power of the police the kidnappers ran away.

No ransom was paid,they were rescued tactically and professionally. My question is that the perpetrators were giving pats in the back for job well done at rescue scene .
Nigeria police and lie Muhammad are relatives.

Lies. Bandits are having great times and laughing at the Nigerian police.
