The kidnappers of three girls from Babington Macaulay Junior Seminary (BMJS) 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.
Nation reports that the distraught father of one of the girls on Tuesday said the abductors were demanding for N200 million ransom.
They were said to have got 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.
