Read Time:55 Second
The Kogi State Government has announced the rescue of six more students, bringing the number of kidnapped students so far rescued to twenty.
Kingsley Fanwo, the state commissioner of information, made this announcement in a statement on Tuesday.
The Commissioner said, “Our data shows that there are four students yet to be found.”
“The fierce gun battle between security agents and the kidnappers forced the kidnappers to succumb to superior firepower and abandon the kidnapped students. Some of the kidnappers escaped with severe injuries”. Fanwo said.
Recall that last Thursday, the Commissioner stated that the families of the six students who were just rescued had verified that the students had returned home, despite the police reporting that 14 students had been saved.
He stated that Usman Ododo, the Executive Governor of Kogi State, conveyed his sincere gratitude to the Joint Forces involved in the operations and urged them to keep searching till the final student was located.
“We wish to assure the public that the security architecture around our schools has been recalibrated for efficiency and early warning alarm to prevent future occurrence,” he added.
