Kidnappers finally release abducted Nigerian schoolgirls

Gunmen have released girls kidnapped from a boarding school in northwest Nigeria, the governor of Zamfara state announced on Twitter on Tuesday in which he shared pictures of the released girls.

An armed gang kidnapped 279 girls from the Government Girls Science Secondary (GGSS) School in the town of Jangebe at around 1 am on Friday. The governor’s tweets did not state how many girls had been released but carried images of girls.

“Alhamdulillah! It gladdens my heart to announce the release of the abducted students of GGSS Jangebe from captivity”, Zamfara State Governor Bello Matawalle said on Twitter.

“This follows the scaling of several hurdles laid against our efforts. I enjoin all well-meaning Nigerians to rejoice with us as our daughters are now safe,” he said.
