Oyo students, teachers rescued from terrorists after 56 days in captivity.
By Adeola Badru
Journalists were denied access to the 2 Division Medical Centre, Military Hospital, Ibadan, where victims rescued from the Oriire Local Government abduction are receiving treatment, with only Governor Seyi Makinde eventually permitted to enter the facility.
Security personnel prevented members of the media from gaining entry as tight security measures remained in place around the hospital.
Several government officials also waited outside while military authorities carried out their internal security procedures.
The governor was later allowed into the medical facility to meet the rescued victims, while journalists remained outside.
Military authorities did not immediately provide an official explanation for restricting media access.
However, security around the hospital remained visibly heightened as officials monitored movements into the facility.
