The students, he added, were currently receiving medical attention at a military facility in the metropolis.
The commissioner said, “The eight female students of Government Secondary School, Awon, who were kidnapped by terrorists on Monday, April 3, 2023, in the Awon general area of Kachia LGA – have escaped from the terrorists’ den. “The students, according to preliminary briefings, escaped from a thick forest around the Kaduna-Niger interstate boundaries, and walked for days before arriving at a location where they were harboured. Human intelligence sources subsequently alerted the Kaduna State Government for immediate evacuation.
“The students have been safely evacuated to a military facility where they are presently receiving medical attention.” He said Governor El-Rufai expressed his delight over the development, and praised the students for demonstrating sheer courage and resilience in making their escape from captivity.All rights reserved.
