After Freedom, Abducted 30 Kebbi School Students To undergo medical screening

A total of students abducted from the Federal Government College, Birnin Yauri in Kebbi State have regained freedom.

This comes four months after bandits stormed the school and kidnapped an unspecified number of students and four teachers.

VAM News recalls that the attack occurred in June.

Channels Television in June 17 reported the attack on the school during which the assailants killed a police officer guarding the school.

Mr Yahaya Sarki, who is the Special Adviser on Media to Governor Atiku Bagudu of Kebbi, confirmed the release of the students in a statement on Thursday.

“Today Thursday, the 21st of October 2021, thirty (30) students of the Federal Government College, Birnin Yauri have arrived Birnin Kebbi, the Kebbi State capital following their release while efforts are still continuing to secure the release of the remaining,” he said.

“They shall undergo medical screening and support while being reunited with their families. We thank all those who have helped in securing the release, while congratulating Mr President, Muhammadu Buhari, for the success.”

While authorities have yet to ascertain the exact number of those abducted by the bandits, some of the students and teachers have since regained freedom.
