Respite came the way of authorities of Model College, Epe, Lagos and parents, as the kidnapped teachers and students regained freedom last night.
They were released about 10.35p.m., Tuesday night.
Gunmen had stormed the school last week and abducted the school’s vice principal, four students and four teachers. Two students were immediately released by the kidnappers same day.
Though the exact amount paid as ransom is still sketchy at the moment, however, Vanguard reports that one of the families paid N1 million for their ailing child.
Parents of the abducted students were said to have visited the school, yesterday, where a meeting was held with management of the school. Some of them left in the evening.
The money, as gathered, was dropped at an undisclosed designated place, as instructed by the kidnappers, for the release of the ailing captive.
