BREAKING: Abducted 27 Kagara Schoolboys regain freedom

The 27 students abducted by bandits in the Government Science College, Kagara, Niger State, have been freed.

Recall that a total of 27 students and three staff members and 12 members of their family were abducted after the attack on the school about 10 days ago.

A source at the Niger state government house confirmed the development to TheCable on Saturday.

”The Kagara schoolboys have been released. They are on their way to town now,” the source said.

”All the boys and the family members were released.”

It is not yet certain if ransom was paid for their release.

It learnt Abubakar Bello, the governor of Niger state, will receive the students at the government house later today.

The release of the Kagara students comes a day after 317 schoolgirls were abducted from Government Girls Secondary School, Jangebe in Zamfara state.

There has been a spate of kidnappings, targeting vulnerable groups particularly in the north.
