Two female students of Olabisi Onabanjo University, Precious Adeyemo and Abiola Oyefule, who were kidnapped on Sunday night by unknown gunmen from the Ayetoro campus in Ago Iwoye, Ogun state, have been released.

Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo AbiodunAbiodunAbiodun, announced this on Tuesday night via Twitter.

“This is to announce that we have secured the release of Precious Adeyemo and Abiola Oyefule – both OOU students recently kidnapped in Ayetoro,” the governor wrote on his official Twitter handle.

“I appreciate the efforts of the Ogun State Command of the Nigeria Police and other security agencies involved in the exercise that will now see the ladies reunited with their respective families.” He tweeted.

The students were reported to have been kidnapped by gunmen who stormed Igbole Aibo quarters in Ayetoro.

They were said to have been on their way back to campus from an outing when they ran into the kidnappers.

It was gathered that the gunmen had been on the trail of a call card dealer in the area, but were unable to break into her house, after which the students were taken away instead.
