The 18- sitter bus in which they were traveling was said to have been hijacked by the gun men who have since contacted the parents of one of the corps' member to demand a 50 million naira ransom.

 

The police and NYSC officials have been alerted since yesterday but there have been no further information concerning the abduction.

 

The leadership of NYSC is yet to make a statement concerning the rumoured abduction.
