In a heartwarming turn of events, the Kaduna State government has confirmed the safe release of 287 Kaduna’s Kidnapped School Children, who were abducted from their school in Kuriga, Chikun Local Government Area. After enduring 16 days in captivity, the children’s return marks a moment of relief and celebration for their families and the community at large.
Governor Uba Sani expressed his profound gratitude in a statement, “Our hearts are overflowing with joy as we welcome back our young learners to the warm embrace of their loved ones. This successful outcome is a testament to the unwavering efforts of our security forces and the invaluable support of the National Security Adviser, Mal. Nuhu Ribadu.”
The children, who were taken from their school on March 7th, were subjected to a harrowing ordeal, marched into the dense forests by their captors. Yet, their spirits remained unbroken, and today they stand free, a symbol of hope and resilience.
President Bola Tinubu, who had pledged to secure the children’s freedom without the exchange of ransom, lauded the operation’s success, “The safe return of these children is a victory for our nation and a clear message to those who challenge the sanctity of human life: we will not waver in our mission to protect our citizens.”
The community of Kuriga, once shrouded in anxiety, now rejoices in the safe return of their children. As the nation celebrates this triumph, it also serves as a poignant reminder of the ongoing challenges and the collective resolve to safeguard the future of every Nigerian child.
