Detained 344 Enugu students and staff of Providence High School on Tuesday regained freedom after six days of being held hostage by Assets Management Corporation of Nigeria, AMCON, who sealed the entrance gate to their school.
The padlock with which the school was locked had been removed when visited by Tuesday afternoon.
When contacted one of the staff who simply identified himself as, Mr George, said that the corporation came earlier in the morning, removed the padlock and left.
“They came around in the morning to remove the padlock on the gate. It is a gradual thing. We believe will get over the trauma caused by the corporation”, he said.
