Tears flowed like river from the eyes of parents on Tuesday after the abduction of three students of the Babington Macaulay Junior Seminary, Ikorodu, Lagos by gunmen on Monday night.
Many of the parents including officials of the school also refused to talk to journalists.
Amid heavy security, some of the parents besieged the school to pick their children.
A parent identified as Mrs. Ategbole who spoke after some overtures said there had never been such incident in the school in the past.
She said, ” There has been nothing of sort in the school in the past. The devil is a liar. We shall triumph.”
Meanwhile the Commissioner of Police in Lagos State, Fatai Owoseni, and an Assistant Inspector-General of Police, B. Hassan, are holding a closed-door meeting with the parents of the students, who were abducted from secondary school in Lagos.
The senior police officials, who arrived the school this morning with military men, inspected the school premises, including the broken fence reportedly used by the abductors before the meeting.
No fewer than three pupils of Babington Macaulay Junior Seminary School, a private school in the Ikorodu area of Lagos, were abducted by gunmen.
It was learnt that the gunmen stormed the school at about 8:30pm on Monday and seized the children.
The Lagos State Police Command said three schoolgirls were abducted but unconfirmed reports said the number was more than that.
