The group of bandits that kidnapped 15 students, four staff members, and a dispatch rider at the College of Agriculture and Animal Science, Bakura, Zamfara State, has given a 24-hour ultimatum for the payment of N350m ransom or they kill the abductees.

In a 30-second video obtained by FIJ on Wednesday, the masked bandits were seen holding guns to the heads of their abductees.

FIJ learnt that the bandits transmitted the video around 10 pm on Tuesday through the phone of one of the kidnapped students.

“They recorded the video using the phone of one of the kidnapped students and sent it to his contacts on Whatsapp,” a source said.

“Peace be unto you all. You can all see the situation we are in! We’ are the students of Zamfara College of Agriculture and Animal Sciences Bakura that were kidnapped. As you can see, we are being threatened with death by them unless the government does something about it in 24 hours.

“They have taken us to where they deposited the corpses of those they kidnapped in Yarkofoji community and they confirmed to us that if the government fails to take action from now to tomorrow morning…”

While he was speaking, one of the bandits, brandishing his AK 47 gun, kept saying “Yes, see it here we mean it. Everyone should see it here. It’s not a lie. Yes we mean it.”

Well, I blame Buhari. Wait, no! Not Buhari, but the state government who's failed in tackling security challenges ravaging the state. Oh no! I blame those who voted both the state and federal government into power!!

Nigerians are too lazy to read and study history, hence, repeating same mistake!!!

Bandits are boko Haram they are using this system to fund the group.

Sad

Again

The business men are at it again, doing what they knows best to do.

The Fulani government should key to their bidding if, they want the students and the staff to come out alive.

.

These are terrorist, which one be bandits ?

Don't pay this ransom, the more you pay ransom the more powerful bandits become. It will encourage other lazy youths to join the business.
Like Oliver twist, they will keep asking for more and abducting more n more innocent citizens. Elrufai was right.
Money no dey do peson, especially free money (paid ransom)

Both FG and Govs should intensify efforts to fight these kidnappers but for now...Nobody should pay any ransom!... Victims.... collateral damage.
God airpus!

Go ahead. They support Buhari.
So go ahead

I thought they are surrendering?
This is what you get when you treat terrorism with kids glove

God, why didn't you allow Lord Lugard's mum have a miscarriage when she was pregnant with him? See the kind of problem he has created by yoking us together with animals.
