Three more abducted students of the Bethel Baptist Secondary school in Kaduna State have been found, Channels News is reporting.
The three students who are all males were found by troops at the Kankumi forest general area in Chikun local government where they were abandoned by their abductors.
Although the police or school management are yet to confirm the development, locals told Channels Television that the three students had escaped from the bandits.
After their kidnap from their school on July 5, they were reportedly re-kidnapped by another group of bandits while wandering inside the forest.
The second set of bandits were said to have renegotiated and collected ransom from the parents of the three students, after which they dumped them inside the forest before they were found by troops.
The students have now been debriefed by the military, after which they will be handed over to the school authorities.
