Sources, quoted by Punch reports, said many parents sold their property and borrowed from friends and relatives to pay the N31m ransom. A source said, “We don’t know what else these people want. The parents are stranded. The first time, three parents met with them somewhere and gave them N10m. “They demanded another N21m ransom. The parents took the money to the place and gave it to some gang members. They told the parents that they had done all the necessary things and promised to release the children in the next two days. They have been expecting the children since last week.” One of the parents said his quest to reunite with his child had increased tremendously in the last few days as a result of the assurance by the abductors. “We gave them N31m cash. We didn’t send it through a third party and they confirmed the money was complete. They promised to release our children soon. “We were confused when we heard that they demanded another N1.5m before the children could be released,” the parent added. The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Olarinde Famous-Cole and the Force PRO, CSP Mashood Jimoh, had repeatedly assured the parents and members of the public that the pupils would be rescued soon.
