The students were abducted last Saturday around 10:30 pm on campus while studying near a lecture theatre.
The University Director, Information, Protocol and Public Relations of the University, Mrs Rosemary Waku, disclosed this in a statement.
She said that the two students were returned to campus on Tuesday and mentioned their names to include; Israel Farren Kwaghgee and Solomon Salihu.
