There are indications that the abductors of three school girls at Babington Macaulay Junior Seminary (BMJS) might have reduced the ransom demand.
DAILY POST reports that Timilehin Olosa, Tofunmi Popoolaniyan and Deborah Akinayo were whisked away from the classrooms on Monday night by suspected pipeline vandals.
Nation reports that the criminals who made another contact at about 2:00am on Thursday to one of the victims’ parents, pegged the amount at N10million, against their earlier N200million demand.
Meanwhile, the school management had reportedly urged the criminals to collect one million Naira in exchange for the three girls but the hostage takers insisted on N10 million.
It was learnt that the abductors also gave the school specific location to drop the agreed ransom.
According to the parents, who refused to be named, the school was hopeful and prayers had been intensified so that God will touch the kidnappers to release the girls.
