Kidnappers Demand N120m Ransom For Release of Six Nigerian Law School Students

July 29, 2025
 
The abduction occurred along the route between Wukari in Taraba State and a part of Benue State.

 
Kidnappers of six Nigerian Law School students have reportedly demanded a ransom of N20m for each victim. 
 
In total, the abductors are demanding N120.
 
The students were kidnapped by gunmen while travelling from Onitsha, Anambra State, to the Yola campus of the Nigerian Law School in Adamawa State on Saturday, July 26, 2025. 
 
The abduction occurred along the route between Wukari in Taraba State and a part of Benue State. 
 
The students were on their way to resume academic activities, which were scheduled to reopen on Monday after their court externship break.
 
Some of the victims have been identified as Rev. Ernest Okafor, Ogbuka Fabian, Nwamma Philip, Okechukwu Obadiegwu, Obalem Emmanuel, and Obiorah David.
 
A fresh update on the abduction of the six Nigerian Law School students has revealed that the kidnappers are demanding a N20m ransom for each victim.
 
Sources at the Yola campus of the Nigerian Law School told Punch on Sunday evening that the suspected gunmen had established contact with relatives and colleagues of the victims to negotiate ransom payment.
 
One of the students, Chisom, recounted how he initially dismissed the news until she tried to reach some of the victims.
 
“We heard the news this morning (Sunday) that some of our classmates were abducted. I didn’t want to believe it, so I started making a few calls because I know all of them. I tried to call three of the victims, but their numbers were switched off,” the student says. 

“When I tried one of them again, he picked up the call. There was noise in the background, but when he finally spoke, he screamed that he had been kidnapped and told a colleague to send N20m for his release."
 
He further disclosed that he spoke with another classmate based in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, who had already heard about the incident. 
 
“He told me he’d been aware of the abduction since Thursday. According to him, the wife of one of the victims reached out to inform him about it. That was when we confirmed that the kidnapping happened in Benue State,” he added.
 
A student leader at the Yola campus, who spoke with the publication on the condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the case, disclosed that the matter had already been reported to the police.
 
"We are currently in Yola. We have contacted the Adamawa State Police Command. We are just waiting for more updates from them. We haven’t got any concrete information yet,” the student leader said.
