The proprietor of the Apostolic Faith Group of Schools, Emure Ekiti, Gabriel Adesanya, on Wednesday,
lamented that kidnapped pupils and staff members of the school were being subjected to a series of maltreatment by their abductors.
Adesanya who spoke to The PUNCH on Wednesday, said whenever the kidnappers called the parents, the children were flogged and heard crying in the background.
He added that the kidnappers insisted on the N100m ransom they demanded on Tuesday and threatened that they would take drastic actions against the schoolchildren and the workers who were abducted on Monday.
On Monday, gunmen operating on the Emure-Ekiti — Iporo Ekiti road attacked a bus conveying over 25 pupils of the school home after closing hours.
