The kidnapped schoolchildren of Apostolic Faith Group of Schools, Emure-Ekiti, Ekiti State, and their teachers have been released.
According to the Daily Trust, the victims regained their freedom around 2 a.m. on Sunday.
The children and their teachers had been with the kidnappers for about seven days.
In a short video clip, the freed pupils and their teachers sat on the floor, looking tired, as a mother lamented the condition of her child in the background.
The abductors had demanded N100 million for the release of the victims, but it was not immediately clear if a ransom was eventually paid or not.
A school bus conveying pupils and some staff members of the school to their respective houses was amused by gunmen Monday evening.
About 10 occupants of the bus—five schoolchildren, three teachers, and the driver—were abducted and whisked away.
Thank God for their lives oh
