Two female students who were abducted from their off-campus accommodation in Sabon Gida village in Bungudu Local Government Area while attending the Federal University Gusau in Zamfara State have been liberated.
This information was provided by the Federal University of Gusau’s Zamfara State Students Association (ZAMSSA) chapter in a news release written and signed by the association’s public relations officer, Comrade Umar Abubakar.
The Association declined to say whether a ransom was paid before the female students from the university’s microbiology department were rescued on Friday.
The two female students who were abducted have since been reunited with their family, according to Obasanjonews24, after being held captive for 12 days.
The pupils expressed their true happiness at being released and their gratitude to the school administration and their parents, who had to endure the tragedy of their kidnapping and unspeakable suffering.
The statement asked the security services to take whatever steps are necessary to achieve the arrest and conviction of the criminal act’s perpetrators and sponsors.
