After much discussion at the Federal Executive Council meeting on Wednesday regarding the kidnapping of more than 200 students in Kaduna State, President Bola Tinubu gave strict instructions to the security forces not to give money to the abductors while trying to free the students.
The decision was announced by Mohammed Idris, Minister of Information and National Orientation, to State House Correspondents at a briefing.
Idris claims that the President has ordered the security forces to pursue the kidnappers and make sure they free the hostages and return them to their families without making any payment as ransom.
Remember that lately, robbers kidnapped over 280 students and teachers from Government Secondary School and LEA Primary School in Kuriga, Kaduna State, shocking the country.
At least 280 pupils and instructors were allegedly taken away by the bandits after they opened fire on their victims in the Kuriga region of Kaduna State’s Chikun Local Government region.
