Mrs Rachel Alamu, a survivor of the bandit kidnapping in Oyo State, has described in vivid detail how she and other captives, including primary school pupils and their teacher, were transported deep into a forest following their abduction.
Speaking in a video interview published by TVC News, Alamu recounted that the ordeal began when her car was used by the kidnappers to move the group to an initial gathering point.

It was there that they encountered the young school children and their teacher, who had also been taken.
Bicycles used to move victims through the forest
From that point, the captives were forced to continue on foot for roughly one hour before the bandits produced bicycles to cover the remaining distance, she said to TVC News.
Alamu said approximately ten bicycles were brought out, and the group was packed onto them for what turned out to be an exhausting journey.
"We had to walk for about one hour, they brought bicycle machine and about ten of them so we were packed there and we rode for more than four hours on charred parts but they knew their way," she said.
