…51 out of 303 Niger students also rescued
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Sunday afternoon announced the release of the 38 church worshippers who were kidnapped in the state.
In a statement released Sunday evening by the President himself, he said
“My fellow Nigerians,
You will recall that I cancelled my trip to the G20 summit in South Africa to enable me coordinate the security efforts at home.
Thanks to the efforts of our security forces over the last few days, all the 38 worshippers abducted in Eruku, Kwara State have been rescued.
