He stated that the NYSC was in contact with their families to gather information about their location but urged anyone with useful information to contact the scheme.
The vehicle they were using was a white Hilux with registration number “27D31FG”.
“Anyone with information regarding their whereabouts should contact any of the 37 NYSC state secretariats, area offices, the National Directorate Headquarters in Abuja, or the nearest police station or security agency for prompt action,” Megwa said.
