Meanwhile, the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association has joined the negotiation team with the bandits in an effort to rescue the kidnapped teachers and students of Government Science College Kagara in Niger State.
A competent source disclosed that the National President of the association, Alhaji Kiruwa Zuru, is now part of the negotiation team.
According to the source, the national president was allegedly invited by the Niger State Government to serve as a mediator between the bandits and the state.
The source said, “Ardon Zuru is highly respected by the bandits. They listen to him and as such, we are confident that the negotiation will soon come to an end and the abducted persons will soon regain freedom.”
He also stated that Zuru was part of the negotiation team that rescued the students of Government Science College, Kankara in Katsina State recently abducted by the bandits.
Efforts to talk to Zuru failed as he did not pick up the calls to his mobile. He had also yet to respond to text messages sent to him.
Also, a competent source also informed one of our correspondents that there was heavy security within the Kotonkoro Forest as several security personnel were drafted to ensure the release and safe return of the kidnapped teachers and students.
