Seven National Youths Service Corps members who were abducted on their way to Port Harcourt from the NYSC orientation camp in Ondo State have been released after a week in captivity.
One of the kidnapped corps member’s family members had reported the incident to a radio station in Port Harcourt, claiming that 12 members were taken by armed men along the Rumuji axis of the East-West Road in Emuoha Local Government Area of Rivers State.
The state police spokesperson confirmed the release of the corps members but had no knowledge of any ransom being paid.
