The families of five pupils and four staff members of the Apostolic Faith Group of Schools, Emure Ekiti, who were kidnapped by gunmen on Monday, are living in fear as the abductors have threatened to kill their victims if they fail to pay N15m ransom.
The kidnappers, who initially demanded N100m, reduced the ransom after negotiations with the families but insisted on the prompt payment, saying the children were becoming weak.
