We’ll Bring Bandits To Book, Presidency Speaks On Abducted Kaduna Varsity Students

 


The presidency has disclosed that it is working to ensure the safe rescue of students abducted from Greenfield University in Kaduna.


Recall that gunmen had attacked the school and abducted several students on April 18.


The kidnappers had vowed to kill the remaining students if a ransom of N100 million was not paid by Tuesday days after five of those abducted were later found dead.


However, one of the students was confirmed to have been freed on Tuesday, while several others are still in captivity.


As at the time of filing this report, the state is yet to ascertain how many students are still missing.


In a statement on its Twitter handle on Tuesday, the federal government promised to work with the Kaduna government to ensure that all the students are rescued alive.


The presidency also called on Nigerians to shun negative ethnic or religious affiliations, and unite against criminality


“We deeply share the anguish of the parents of the abducted Greenfield University students. The Federal Government through the military & intelligence agencies is working to support the Kaduna State Govt to bring this tragic saga to an end with no further loss of innocent life,” the post reads.


“We will ensure that good triumphs over evil, & that all of the bandits & criminals terrorizing innocent lives & communities are brought to book.

“This is a time for all Nigerians to unite, regardless of religion, ethnicity or partisan affiliation—against a common, dastardly enemy.”
