Recent reports confirm that 137 school children who were kidnapped by armed gunmen in Nigeria have been released. The governor of Nigeria’s Kaduna state, Uba Sani, shared this news in a TV interview aired on Sunday. The children were abducted earlier this month from the LEA Primary and Secondary School in Kuriga village, located in Kaduna’s Chikun district.
During the interview, Governor Sani expressed his happiness over the safe return of the children and mentioned that he had met with their families, who were also relieved by the news. However, he mentioned the unfortunate death of a teacher who developed complications while in captivity, though specific details were not provided.
