Operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Sqaud (SARS) have been deployed on a rescue mission after Kidnappers stormed Igbo Nla Model College in Epe, Lagos, abducting four students, a teacher and the school principal.
Reports say the suspected kidnappers launched an attack on Thursday morning just as students were observing early morning prayers in the assembly.
