Fifteen more abducted students of Bethel Baptist High School, Maraban Damishi, Kaduna State have regained their freedom after 48 days in captivity.
The state chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) Rev. John Hayab said this when he spoke with newsmen in Kaduna on Sunday.
“Fifteen more students were released on Saturday night and 65 students are still with the bandits, ” he said.
Bandits in the early hours of July 5 invaded the school and kidnapped an unspecified number of students.
Spokesperson for the police Command in the state Mohammed Jalige also confirmed the release of the students.
Jalige, however, said that the police was not in the picture of whether ransome was paid by the parents before the students release or not.
“We are not aware of that,” he said.
