The corps members were reportedly on their way to Abuja after completing the three-week orientation programme in Kolokuma/Opokuma LGA of Bayelsa when armed assailants attacked the vehicles.
The rescued corps members have recounted their experience.
In a video making the rounds on social media, one of the male victims, David Ayodele, recounted how the suspected k!dnappers threatened to unalive any of them who tried to escape. He mentioned that they had just finished their three-week orientation and were relocating to Abuja when the vehicle they were travelling in, was ambushed by the assailants.
David said the k!dnappers threatened to keep them hostage for one month.
