 Gunmen storm plateau mission school, abduct students

By Modupe Shodeinde

Unidentified gunmen abducted two students of a school run by Calvary International Ministry (aka CAPRO) in Barkin Ladi Local Government Area of Plateau State.

The school, a few kilometres from the Yakubu Gowon International Airport, Haipang, was attacked on Wednesday by the armed men.

The School was invaded with the aim of kidnapping the students but timely intervention by security agents forced the attackers to withdraw, leaving with two students but one out of the two abducted students later escaped during a gun battle between the security personnel and the abductors.

CAPRO is an international interdenominational missions agency with over 700 missionaries from 26 countries and with operations in 35 countries in sub-Saharan Africa.

The school management and the state Police Command are yet to make official statement regarding the incident.
