Segun Atanda/

A total of N1.2billion has been named as ransom for the eight people abducted at the Nigerian-Turkish International School on Friday night.
According to detectives, calls have been coming in from the kidnappers, who have placed a N300million ransom on each of the two Turkish nationals among the victims and N100million each on the six other victims including three female students.
A source told Newsmakers, “They have been using the victims’ phone numbers to call their families. Each time the families try to negotiate, they would end the call.”
Newsmakers also learnt that CCTV Cameras at the school hostel have shown that the kidnappers wore masks when they stormed the hostel. One of them wore skirt, but detectives suspect the figure to be that of a man.
Among the victims were two Junior Secondary School (JSS) students, one Senior Secondary School (SSS) student, three Nigerian workers and two Turkish staff.
They were abducted at about 9:30pm on Friday, when the kidnappers dug through the fence and entered through a back door.
