Gunmen abduct three corps members in Rivers.

THREE corps members were in the early hours of Saturday kidnapped by gunmen in Ogonokom Community Secondary School, Abua/Odua Local Government Area of Rivers State.
The corps members (two males and one female) were taken away by their abductors from the Corpers' Lodge around 12am.
It was gathered that the hoodlums had gained entrance into their lodge while they (corps members) were fast asleep and seized their victims. The abducted corps members were identified as Ogochi Martins, Chijioke Richard and Esther Nwachukwu. Some items, including mobile phones were said to have been taken away by the suspected kidnappers, who came with a vehicle.
It was gathered that indigenes of the Ogonokom community were shocked when they learnt about the kidnap of the corps members, even as sources revealed that such incident had never occurred in the area.

where their lives and property would be safe.
