The kidnapping of students has been more rampant in recent months despite the government vowing to secure schools, saying every child has the right to study without fear.

Last week Thursday, three medical students of the University of Calabar (UNICAL), Cross River State, South-South Nigeria were kidnapped inside the school campus.

The students were identified as Ojang Precious Ebejin, a 200-level student of the Department of Medicine and Surgery; Ugwu Chukwuemeka, a 300-level student of the Department of Genetics and Biotechnology, and Damilola Dickson, a final-year student of the same department.

Confirming the abduction, the spokesman for the Cross River State Police Command, SP Irene Ugbo, said the command along with other security agencies had launched a manhunt for criminals and ensure the rescue of the victims.

Ugbo said the students were abducted on Thursday night at one of the university’s hostels inside the campus but did not provide further information.

According to the police spokesman, “the police are working in collaboration with other agencies to rescue the students.”
