A corps member, identified on X as @dope_demonxx, has taken to social media to reveal that his mother was among the passengers kidnapped from a commercial bus in the Kabba area of Kogi State while traveling to Abuja.
The incident was first highlighted by viral videos shared online, showing the abduction of multiple passengers on November 27, 2025, in broad daylight.
The viral caption expressed public frustration over the security lapse:
“Apparently everyone on this bus was kidnapped earlier today in Kabba, Kogi state. Broad daylight bro… We are tired!!!”
The victim’s son confirmed the horrific news, expressing his shock and despair:
“Nigeria don finally happen to me. Bandits don kidnap my mom. Haaa where do I start from?”
He detailed the frustrating situation regarding ransom negotiations, noting that the kidnappers had assigned different amounts to each family.
He stated that the kidnappers are demanding a large sum:
“The issue still stands on 60 million. We’re trying to negotiate with them, but the number they provided is off for now till evening before we try it again. They call each family that was kidnapped randomly with different amounts. We’re in so much pain. Many children are with them 💔.”
His last communication with his mother indicated she was in the Kabba axis just before communication ceased:
“She was going to Abuja today. The last we heard from her, she said she was in Kabba.”
