Twenty-one children kidnapped while working on a farm at Kamfanin Mai Lafia village in Faskari Local Government Area of Katsina State by terrorists have regained their freedom.
In a statement by its representative in Nigeria, Cristian Munduate, the United Nations said, “Abduction of children, whether at home, at school, on the farm, or anywhere else, is reprehensible.” “Children should never be the target of violence, especially by anyone who should be protecting them.”
The organization therefore called on the authorities to take the necessary action to rescue the abducted children and reunite them with their families unharmed and without delay.
According to a statement signed by the spokesman of the Katsina Police Command, SP Gambo, it pointed out that the abducted children comprised seventeen girls and four boys, adding that they were kidnapped by the bandits in Faskari Forest.
The statement depicted that the terrorists, shortly after they were kidnapped on October 30, 2022, demanded N30 million as ransom for their release but were silent on whether the ransom was paid or not before they were released.
