POLICE PRESS RELEASE

Re: Alleged Abduction of Two Pupils of St. Peter’s Academy

The Nasarawa State Police Command’s attention has been drawn to a report circulating across social media platforms and some news outlets alleging that kidnappers invaded St. Peter’s Academy, Rukubi, in Doma Local Government Area, and abducted two pupils. The Command wishes to state unequivocally that the report is false and does not reflect the true state of affairs.

On 21/11/2025 at about 1000hrs, an unverified report filtered in alleging that two pupils of St. Peter’s Academy were abducted while engaging in sporting activities on the school field. In response, the Commissioner of Police, CP Shetima Jauro Mohammed, promptly deployed a combined team of Police operatives and military personnel stationed within the general area to the scene.

Upon arrival, it was discovered that the pupils had sighted some hunters carrying Dane guns and, out of fear, fled, mistaking them for kidnappers. The area was thoroughly combed, and normalcy was immediately restored. The proprietor of the school was also interviewed and confirmed to the operatives that the alarm raised was a false one. The general area continues to be closely monitored to forestall any breach of security.

The Command therefore urges members of the public to disregard the circulating report as mere rumour unworthy of publication as factual news. Journalists and media outlets are further advised to always verify information before publication in order to avoid misleading the public.

This should not stop at press release.

The NSA and police should track those who pushed the fake news into the media.

It is fake news yet has made it to the Frontpage of Nairaland and some media platforms. It's very easy to track. I recall a time such fake news was eventually traced to a Vanguard newspaper staffer. There was no strong Cybercrimes laws then but now our Cybercrimes law has been strengthened and should be further tightened to nip the misinformation warfare in the bud.

This should not stop at press release. It should be followed with arrests, thorough investigation and prosecution.

Any news debunked by our military, Police and DSS actually means the crime really happened

That was how the military said Brigadier General Uba has been released, he’s safe and heading back to the base.
