The aftermath of last week’s kidnapping has left the community in shock, particularly with the gruesome fate of the school’s driver, Taiwo Olugbaye, who faced a tragic end at the hands of his abductors.

While the kidnapped pupils and teachers were eventually released, the price paid for their freedom was steep. A circulating viral clip on social media depicts the victims in a state of exhaustion, evoking audible distress from parents who witnessed the visible toll on their children.

A parent revealed that the community, both local residents and those living abroad, united to amass the ransom demanded by the abductors. The shocking sum of N15 million, alongside provisions such as food, tramadol, milk, and hard drinks, was reportedly provided to secure the release of the children and teachers.

The parent shared the challenging experience of locating the kidnappers in the expansive forest, recounting the emotional reunion with the released victims. Tragically, the parent disclosed that the driver met his demise after being unable to provide the required phone numbers of his relatives promptly. The kidnappers, angered by this, reportedly hit him with their gun, leading to days of agonizing pain from his injuries. Ultimately, on a fateful Saturday morning, the driver was shot dead, and his body was callously burnt to ashes, leaving a haunting and bitter memory for the traumatized children and their families.

This disturbing incident underscores the urgent need for enhanced security measures and intervention in the face of escalating criminal activities in the region.
