The 137 kidnapped pupils of Kuriga school in Kaduna State that were rescued from bandits by the Nigerian military have arrived Kashim Ibrahim House Kaduna (Government House) to meet the State governor, Uba Sani.

Amidst tight security on Monday afternoon the school children arrived the Government House at about 2:00pm in three medium sized buses and two other mini buses from the 1 Division Nigerian Army Headquarters in Kaduna.

It would be recalled that the pupils were abducted on March 7, 2024, at a Local Education Authority (LEA) Primary School and a Junior Secondary School in Kuriga village, of Chikun local government area Kaduna State.

They were eventually rescued by troops on Sunday morning in an unknown location in Zamfara State where the bandits had held them for 18 days, even as those presumed to have been kidnapped were initially said to be 287 in number.

Parents of the students and leaders of Kuriga community have earlier trooped to the Sir Kashim Ibrahim House, Sunday when they heard the news that the abducted children have been freed and were going to be reunited with their families and relations.

However, they were later instructed to wait until on Monday before they meet them.
