The Nigerian military has announced the number of students rescued from Lea Primary School and Government Secondary School Kuriga in the Chikun Local Government Area of Kaduna State.

It is remembered that 287 individuals were abducted when gunmen on motorcycles stormed their school, resulting in an event that ignited widespread anger and condemnation.

In a statement released by the Director of Defence Media Operations, Major General Edward Buba, it was clarified that a total of 137 students were rescued, which contradicts earlier reports that 287 children were kidnapped by bandits on March 6.

The statement said the rescued students will be handed over to the Kaduna State Government for further action.

“It would be recalled that on 7 March 2024, troops received information that terrorists had invaded LEA School Kuriga in Chikun LG of Kaduna State. During the incident unconfirmed number of pupils were abducted. Following the incident, the military committed to leaving no stone unturned until all the hostages were rescued,” the statement read.

“Accordingly, in the early hours of 24 March 2024, the military working with local authorities and government agencies across the country, in a coordinated search and rescue operation rescued the hostages. The hostages are the same persons who were abducted from the school at Kuriga in Chikun LGA of Kaduna State.

“The rescued hostages totaling 137 comprise 76 females and 61 males. They were rescued in Zamfara State and would be conveyed and handed over to the Kaduna State Government for further action.”

The Kaduna State governor, Uba Sani, confirmed the release of the schoolchildren in an early morning statement on Sunday.
