Governor Nasir Idris of Kebbi State has assured parents of the abducted school girls of Government Girls Comprehensive Secondary School, Maga, in Danko Wasagu Local Government Area, of the Government’s unwavering determination to rescue their children.
The Governor gave the assurance while addressing newsmen in Maga shortly after a meeting with security agencies, traditional leaders, parents of the abducted children, and other stakeholders on the situation.
Governor Idris condemned the criminal act, describing the incident as deeply unfortunate.
He reassured parents that security operatives were working tirelessly to ensure the safe return of the 25 abducted schoolgirls.
He explained that his visit to Maga was to personally assess the situation, console the parents, and restore their confidence.
“The unfortunate incident has already occurred, and we came to see things for ourselves. We met with the parents whose children were abducted to give them confidence and to assure them that we will do everything possible to ensure the safe rescue of their children,” he said.
“We have also urged them to remain confident, as the security agencies are doing the needful. That is the essence of coming to Maga, to support our people, give them encouragement, and strengthen their hope,” the Governor added.
It will be recalled that on Monday, armed bandits abducted 25 schoolgirls of GGCSS Maga, Danko Wasagu Local Government Area, and also killed the Vice Principal of the school.
