Prospective corps members of the 2026 Batch C Stream I who boarded buses at Samonda, Ibadan, on their way to orientation camps in Abia, Imo and Enugu states have reportedly been kidnapped.
Two buses reportedly filled with prospective corps members travelling to NYSC orientation camps were said to have been attacked, with the exact location of the incident yet to be established.
A woman who raised the alarm in a video shared online called on parents and relatives whose children travelled to the affected states to take immediate action and seek information about their whereabouts.
According to her, the incident happened yesterday after the prospective corps members left Ibadan, adding that a driver had confirmed the kidnapping and that security operatives were already working to trace the abductors.
She said: “If you know you have children that went to NYSC camp, Abia State, Imo State, Enugu State, better start coming now.
The driver confirmed it. And the commissioner and the police and the soldier, they are already tracing the kidnappers.
We want to contact the soldier. We can also alert you that your children have been kidnapped.”
Investigation surrounding the incident is ongoing.
