Bandits vow to kill other Greenfield students today: Nigerians react

Sadly, today might be the end for the 17 students of Greenfield University who are still in the custody of Kaduna terrorists branded as bandits.

22 students including a staff were abducted from the privately-owned university located along the Kaduna-Abuja highway in Chikun LGA on 20 April 2021.

However, 5 of the students have been wasted by the terrorists and their leader boasted that the remaining students will be killed today unless a ransom is paid.

Sani Jalingo, the leader of the demons, issued the threat on Monday while speaking with the Hausa Service of the Voice of America.

He said the remaining students will be killed if the Kaduna State Government or the students’ family fail to pay the money demanded today.

He insisted that if the money (N100m) and the items (motorcycles) demanded were not provided today, trucks would be used to evacuate the lifeless bodies of the remaining students.

Nigerians have now taken to social media on Tuesday morning to call on the Federal Government to avert the looming disaster.
