Kidnappers said they’ve married off FGC Kebbi school girls- Parents

By our reporter| Parents of the kidnapped school girls from the Federal Girls’ College Yawuri, Kebbi State, on Sunday said the bandits have married off their daughters.

According to some of the parents, the kidnappers have been sending footage showing that their daughters were already married.

In an interview with BBC Hausa, one of the parents said whenever they called the kidnappers, they would tell them that their children are safe and healthy but want to negotiate with the government, and not them.

He said, “Sometimes they call and give us our daughters to talk to us. If your child has your number then they will call and talk to you, But I have never spoken with my daughter since the time they were abducted.”

He further stated that since the abduction, only 10 of the abducted girls called their parents and spoke with them, and that parents of some of the students held a meeting with the Kebbi state government.

“The governor expressed his concern and said action would be taken, today is about two weeks but we have not heard anything,” he said.

“Every other person lives happily in their houses, but we are in a state of anxiety.”

The parent pleaded with the government to help rescue their children from their abductors.
