Scores of tertiary institution students travelling on the East-West road in Ughelli, Delta, have been kidnapped by suspected armed bandits.

It was gathered that the students were returning from a trip in Calabar when the gunmen waylaid and seized their vehicle on the East-West road.

Although details of the abduction were still sketchy, sources revealed that the students were marched into the bush by the gun-wielding men.

The latest development came after several students of the University of Calabar (UNICAL) were abducted by armed bandits in Cross River.

Bright Edafe, Police spokesman in Delta confirmed the latest kidnapping in a post on Monday night.

Mr Edafe said the command was aware of the ‘ugly incident’, saying the police were doing everything possible to ensure the abducted students were rescued unhurt.

What a tinubulation. Nowhere is safe again.

Hope its not the regular suspect ....Fulani herdsmen.
They are pro in this business

Sorry to sound like this in these troubling times for the parents,but I am suspecting that one amongst those students or someone close to those students they informed about their itinerary maybe the informant.
How else can it be explained that the bandits got to know when these students would be returning back and where to wait without fear of confrontation by security agents?
There definitely was some foreknowledge and planning involved to abduct that number of students.
Kidnapping is now a business venture,so many people,even those close to you that one may feel can't harm one or go to that extent may be involved,even if not directly.

Since Apc came onboard security=0

Tinupoo has failed while his paid online meezcrants are singing him praises into oblivion.

In delta state and you called them bandits instead of Igbo Ipob.

Bandits in Delta State? The adjectival word "Militants" is a household name in Niger Delta. How come bandits terrorists in ND?


I left..!

For those talking trash above, Fulani herdsmen have been a persistence problem in Delta state, they even killed police men a few weeks ago at Ughelli.

I think it should be ipob or let's blame Peter Obi as usual

Everybody in Nigeria now agrees on one clear fact. Buhari that was adjudged worst leader in Africa 10 months ago is now far more better than the clueless mandate thief. The feeling within every Nigerian now is that Nigeria doesn’t have a president

This people no get handwork?

Bandits?

Better to wait for better source as Gazette are just full of lies

So militants have ed the kid kidnapping business.
They will give and hide the kids in the creeks

IPOB can't easily operate in dental aside maybe Asaba area where there are plenty people of Ibo stock.

Bandit is the cliche word in Nigeria now for kidnapping related activities in Nigeria. Perhaps, it sounds cool to the editors. Lol

security operatives in Nigeria operate directly under the federal government with the president as their commander in chief. Let Tinubu do his job or resign.

Malroux:

He's busy already on his paid job of defending the corrupt and useless APC government.

No one is paying him anything. He is just a jobless troll idling away on nairaland.

Nawa o, Nlfpmod, na our place be dis.

What a politician lation. Nowhere is safe again.

COMRADES, where are those nairaland yorubas defending their brother's incompetent?

They should start giving capital sentences with immediate execution to kidnappers then watch how this evil trend dies down.

They've started this madness in the south?



It won't succeed.

We need better security.
