Shock and panic have gripped social media after reports surfaced that a newly sworn-in lawyer was abducted shortly after attending the Nigerian Law School Call to Bar ceremony in Abuja. ,

The incident was made public by a fellow colleague of the victim, identified on X (formerly Twitter) as @Rhave_official, who appealed for urgent help while sharing details of the abduction.

According to the post, the young lawyer and her sister were kidnapped on their way home, with the abductors demanding a ransom of ₦20 million.
