Two students of the Joseph Sarwuan Tarka University, Makurdi, Benue State, were abducted by some gunmen outside the university’s campus.

Reporters gathered in a telephone conversation with a student of the institution on Wednesday, Ashar Lubem, that four students were kidnapped by the gunmen, adding that there was panic among the students following the incident.

In a telephone conversation with reporters on Wednesday, the Benue Police Public Relations Officer, Sewuese Anene, confirmed the incident and noted that an investigation had commenced.

Meanwhile, she stressed that the Command only received a report of two students being kidnapped.

“We received the information yesterday evening that two students were kidnapped. We have commenced an investigation, and further details will be provided soon,” Anene said.
