He said, “The report was made at Kwali Division from where it was transferred to us yesterday (Thursday) night; we took a statement from the sister of one of the victims who was inside the vehicle. I told them to come back today and I am still expecting them.”

It was learnt that the kidnappers have demanded N15m ransom from family of the victims.

While they demanded N5m from the family of the two sisters, the kidnappers demanded N10m from the father of Grace Oghene Edegware, a graduate of Accountancy from Delta State Polytechnic, Ozoro, who was deployed by NYSC to Lagos State.

It may be recalled that, so far, three youth corps members have died in three orientation camps across the country in the last one month, spurring angry criticisms about the programme
