Zamfara State Police Command says it was making all necessary efforts to ensure the release of four female students who were abducted between Birinin Magaji and Laura Namoda road in the State.
Newes reports that the female students are facing the threat of forceful marriage in the enclave of their abductors.
In a two-minute, 29 seconds video clip released by the bandits on Sunday, the female students were begging for rescue from both the Zamfara State Government and the general public before they would be forcefully married by the bandits.
In the video clip, all the female students who were seen wearing hijabs, explained that they were facing the threat of forceful marriage over the refusal to pay the N12m ransom demanded by the abductors for their freedom.
The names of the female students were given as Aisha Yahaya, Jamila Yahaya, Ummu Sani, and Hauwa Garba who were kidnapped six months ago.
The State Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Yazid Abubakar said the police were doing everything possible towards the rescue of the kidnapped victims.
“We have started a rescue operation and by the grace of God, we will do our best to get the female students rescued,” he added.
