Kogi State Police have refuted reports of an abduction following an incident involving a commercial bus on June 17th. Initial reports suggested a kidnapping had occurred, but authorities state the bus was simply transporting cocoyam and en route to Ibilo. The bus, driven by a Kabba resident named Ojo, was fully loaded with the crop at the time of the incident. Police investigations determined no abduction took place, dismissing circulating claims. The incident occurred around 9:00 PM, prompting the initial, inaccurate reports. Authorities have not specified the nature of the initial report that triggered the investigation, but confirmed its falsity.
