Narrating the students’ lucky escape, the ASP Mohammed Jalige, the Command’s Public Relations Officer, said, “at about 6pm, they were tasked by their captors to go and fetch firewood from the nearby forest where they were held hostage.
”They, however, decided to take the opportunity of not being monitored and escape to Rijana community along Kaduna–Abuja highway”.
