BBC Deputy Newsday Editor tweets that negotiations are on going

we don't have any foreign policy... smh .. fg will keep quiet about this

In as much as an evil part of me wouldn't want to empathise with them, since some of them, or maybe even all of them are kids of those who steal our monies with impunity, I wouldn't want to loose that part of me that makes me human.

Pray for your safe return, may the Lord protect u and comfort ur families.

Are we sure its not the other way around - 9 rebels kidnapped by a Nigerian?

(That would sound more plausible. . .)

Something is seriously wrong with that country called Ukraine..

I believe the FG will take care of the situation.

Possibly affliated with boko haram because I can't think of any other reason why Russians would kinap Nigerian students. We need to bombard the Ambassador to Russia with letters. Nine is too much...

First Page things...Boko Haram extension.

Kidnapping a nigerian is like kidnapping a TOAD in a gutter.NO USE.

To what end?
