President Bola Tinubu, Sunday, directed security agencies to rescue the remaining female students of the Federal University, Gusau, Zamfara State, who were recently abducted by terrorists.
This was disclosed in a press statement issued by the President’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale.

“While the President wholeheartedly commiserates with all families directly impacted by this sad incident,” Ngelaleadded, “he affirms that his administration has a solemn duty to protect every Nigerian citizen, and in line with this commitment, assures the families of the abducted students that no effort will be spared in ensuring their safe return.
“Furthermore, the President pledges that the federal government is determined to ensure that educational institutions remain sanctuaries of knowledge, growth, and opportunity, and totally free from the menacing acts of terrorists.”
