The Police Command in Oyo State has said investigations into the abduction of the 12-year-old female student in Ibadan are ongoing despite the holding back of the victim’s family.
The Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, in the state, DSP Ayanlade Olayinka, disclosed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, in Ibadan on Friday.
The private secondary school student was abducted by unknown gunmen after alighting from a vehicle at a junction to her school premises around 7.20 a.m. on February 12.
Olayinka said while investigations were ongoing, he could not say if the abductors had contacted the victim’s family because they had refused to show up or give a statement.
“I don’t know because the family has refused to show up or volunteered any statement,” he said.
However, he said that the driver of the vehicle that dropped the student off at her school junction in the Challenge area of Ibadan is in police custody.
