University of Abuja: Abducted Victims Rescued
The police in the Federal Capital Territory says all abducted victims at the University of Abuja have been rescued and reunited with their families.

The police in the Federal Capital Territory says all abducted victims at the University of Abuja have been rescued and reunited with their families.
The police also said the rescue was achieved through a joint operation with other security agencies.
This was disclosed in a statement on Friday by a police spokeswoman DSP Josephine Adeh.
On Tuesday, armed bandits broke into the staff quarters of the University of Abuja, seizing a professor, his children and a yet-unclear number of other staff members.
A spokesman for the school had told Peoples Gazette that the incident occurred shortly after 12:00 a.m. An economics professor Obansa Joseph was taken away alongside two of his children at gunpoint, officials said.
The other officials who were also seized were not immediately named.
The incident came as Abuja and its environs had been coming under increased security threats from violent criminals. A spokesman for the police in Abuja did not immediately return a request seeking comments from The Gazette about the development on Tuesday morning.
Later, the police issued a statement confirming the attack. A few days ago, bandits had bombed the Kaduna-Abuja train.
“Preliminary investigations, however, revealed that six persons were allegedly abducted into the forest by the criminals on sighting the security operatives,” the police had said.
