Twenty medical students, who were kidnapped in Benue State, have just been rescued.

Security sources revealed this on Friday saying the rescue operation was coordinated by the Office of the National Security Adviser.

The rescue effort involved security agencies, including the police, DSS, and military personnel, along with support from the Benue State government.

The medical students were abducted last Thursday along the Otukpo/Otukpa/Enugu federal highway while travelling to Enugu State for the Federation of Catholic Medical and Dental Studentsโ€™ annual convention.

Following their abduction, the IG team arrived in Benue State on Monday and was promptly deployed to Otukpo in search of the abducted Students
