Academics and other related activities are yet to resume at some schools in Oriire Local Government Area of Oyo State, one week after the rescue of over 40 schoolchildren and their teachers.

Investigations by The PUNCH on Thursday revealed that normal academic activities had resumed in some schools in the locality, including Ahoro-Dada and Ikoyi-Ile, while schools in Pamo, Yawota and Ahoro-Esienle remained under lock and key.

The development comes as eight more victims of the May 15 abduction of schoolchildren and teachers in the local government were discharged by the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology Teaching Hospital.

With the development, only the pupil diagnosed with congenital heart disease remained on admission.

The PUNCH gathered that the eight schoolchildren and the teacher were handed over to their parents and relations after it was discovered that they were medically fit.
