Niger State governor, Sani Bello, has appealed to the 24 students of Government Science College in Kagara freed by their abductors in the early hours of Saturday not to let the incident discourage them from pursuing their education.
The governor charged the students to see the development as one of life’s lessons and be resolved to continue schooling. Bello, who spoke while receiving the students as well as six staff of the school and eight of their relatives in Minna, the state capital, promised to address the root cause of banditry in the state.
Among the 38 released, one was said to have been hospitalised due to excessive exhaustion. They were said to have been freed at a location around Kaduna State early on Saturday.
