No fewer than 344 schoolboys were rescued from bandits who took them to Zamfara. The students arrived Katsina on Friday.

Mr Shehu said his information at the time about 10 boys were from sources that should “ideally know”. He added that it was not his intention to downplay the seriousness of the incident.

“I apologize for the incorrect communication citing that only 10 students were kidnapped at the science school, Kankara,” he wrote in a post across social media platforms.

“This communication of numbers was provided by persons that should ideally know. These numbers were seen to conflict with what was available at that time.

“Please understand that this communication was in no way done to downplay the seriousness of the situation.

“Please accept my sincere apologies on this matter as we continue to move our great Nation Nigeria forward. Thank you.”

REMEMBER I TOLD YOU THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT ARE A BUNCH OF EXTRAORDINARY LIARS WHO LIE THROUGH THEIR TEETH.

I am actually surprised they can even own up to their lies. Makes it sound like truth.

Apologies accepted, big brother. Nobody is perfect..

May God bless Nigeria.

... Some evil Nairalanders appear to have issues with "boss".. So I have replaced it with "big brother".. Mehn! Enemies of Nigeria really mean business o.. Finding anything to exploit..

May God help us in this country!

Dear Garba Shehu,

I imagine how you sleep at night knowing you have to wake up to defend lies, tynarry, nepotism and cluelessness.

Nigerian Youths should they continue?

Soro soke!

Where are those guys that were defending him, writing rubbish up and down?

Every thing was scripted... One day the truth would prevail

Nonsense

Aftermath of a government built on propaganda and deceits.
All officials are lying recklessly.

This APC government and their outrageous policy of propaganda. Yet they suck at it. Each level of government tripping over each other with contradictory lies every single step of the way. On every single issue you can think of, the APC has three or more positions on the topic.

Where is minister of information.
This supposed to be treated as fake news

He should be jailed for feeding us with fake news, apology is not enough

He thought they won’t be released so he wanted to reduce the number for damage control. Poor Garba wasn’t in on the plan
