Some mad persons believed to kidnappers, allegedly invaded a
secondary school -Onireke Girls’ High School – in Ibadan, Oyo state on
Monday, causing panic among students and teachers.
Daily Sun reports that the suspected kidnappers, who dressed
like mad persons, had been terrorizing students and staff in the last
few weeks.
They were again sighted last Monday by a food vendor and some
students inside a bush at the back of one of the classroom blocks within
the school premises.
The situation led to confusion as the students, including those sitting
the Junior Secondary School Examinations, reportedly ran for safety.
In trying to restore calm, the vice principal of the school
approached the suspected kidnappers and instructed them to leave the
school premises, however, one of the suspected kidnappers attempted to
attack him.
The school’s gatekeeper and some male teachers, came to his rescue,
chased the hoodlums to their hideout and captured one of the them.
Items recovered at the hideout included several bottles of hot drink,
bottles of juice and soft drink, perfume, eggs, among others.
The arrested hoodlum was later handed over to the police at the Oyo State Police Command headquarters, Eleyele, Ibadan.
