An Oyo State National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member, identified as Lawal Rofiat Ewatomi, has been abducted along the Benin-Ore Expressway.

A Facebook user, Agbakwara, drew the attention of other Facebook users and netizens to the heartbreaking incident.

While narrating the series of events leading up to her abduction, Agbakwara said Ewatomi was abducted while traveling to resume at her place of primary assignment (PPA) from Benin to Ibadan on Tuesday.

He wrote, “My close friend Lawal Rofiat Kofoworola Lawal Rofiat Ewatomi was kidnapped on her way from Benin to Ibadan to resume at her PPA in Ogbomosho.

“She managed to call yesterday and told me she was inside an Ore-bound bus when she was taken.”

The Facebook user also noted that the kidnappers demanded the sum of N20 million to be paid as ransom to secure the release of the abducted corps member.

Her friends and relatives have become helpless and are seeking means to raise the money and secure her release.

Agbakwara added that he has informed the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) secretariat in Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State, about her abduction, but they have yet to respond.

“We don’t know what to do. Her parents are less privileged and can’t afford this.

“I have reported to the NYSC Secretariat in Ibadan and dropped her call-up number, but there has been no response. We are exhausted and desperate for help.”

He also pleaded for the support of Nigerians.
