Following intense operations, which involved coordinated efforts from various security agencies and local vigilantes, the joint task force successfully located and rescued the eight students from a forest in Kwara State.
Among those rescued are five female and three male students.This latest development comes after a series of rescue missions that saw the liberation of several other abducted students in previous weeks.
Sadly, the ordeal also claimed the lives of two students, a tragic reminder of the dangers posed by such criminal activities.
Expressing gratitude for the successful rescue operation, the Kogi State Governor commended the collaborative efforts of all involved parties, including President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the National Security Adviser, and top military officials, for their unwavering support and commitment to restoring the safety of the students.
Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo also extended his appreciation to Governor AbdulRahmam AbdulRazak of Kwara State for his invaluable cooperation and assistance throughout the operation.
He emphasized the importance of bolstering security measures to safeguard educational institutions and ensure the safety of students across the state.
Moving forward, the Kogi State Government reaffirmed its dedication to enhancing security measures, particularly through the Safe School Initiative, to protect the rights of children to quality education.
With a firm commitment to eradicating criminal activities, the government called upon citizens to collaborate with security agencies by providing timely intelligence to prevent future incidents and foster a safer environment for all.
