About two days ago, my friend in Ikorodu called and said we should rejoice with her. She said that the school bus came for her children in the morning but she told the driver to leave cos the kids were sick. The driver went to pick other kids but fortunately they weren’t ready so their mum told the driver to leave and that she will take them to school. He went further to another pupil’s house but the girl wasn’t ready, her mum told him to wait for the girl to quickly finish dressing. Unknown to the parents, the man that presented himself as the driver wasn’t from the school.
He went with a space bus similar in colour and designย to the one used by the school, mentioned the name of each child that he was supposed to pick and told the parents that the main driver (he mentioned his name) was sick and he was sent from the school to pick the children.
While the fake driver was waiting for the girl that was dressing, the main driver with the school bus drove into the Estate. Immediately, the fake driver sighted the bus, he quickly drove off. When the girl’s mother came out and saw the real driver, she was surprised and interrogated him about the whereabouts of the other driver, that was how she knew they had a narrow escape with kidnappers/ritualists.
I narrated this incident to you , so that we can all be alert. Let’s not be too busy to follow our children to the school bus to check who picks them and to always call to confirm from the school when a new person comes for them. May God protect our children…
