DANGEBE SCHOOL GIRLS HELD IN DANGULBI FOREST|| ESCAPEES RECOUNTS BRUTAL EXPERIENCE!!!

The over 300 schoolgirls abducted from Government Girls Junior Secondary School Jangebe, Maru Local Government Area of Zamfara State in the early hours of Friday have been sighted at Dangulbi Forest, credible sources told the Daily Trust Saturday last night. Gunmen stormed the school around 1am and abducted most of the students who are between 12 and 16 years old from their dormitories. A school teacher who spoke to Daily Trust Saturday on the condition of anonymity said out of 600 students of Government Girls Secondary School, Jangebe, only about 50 were left behind. However, the police in the state said 317 students were kidnapped while the Zamfara State Commissioner of Information, Alhaji Sulaiman Tunau Anka, said the exact number of abducted students was yet to be ascertained. Daily Trust Saturday last night gathered that security personnel and officials of the Zamfara State government have established the identity of the girls’ abductors. An authoritative source close to the efforts to secure the release of the girls told Daily Trust Saturday that the window of engagement was being opened to discuss with the armed bandits. “The schoolgirls are being held at Dangulbi Forest in Maru Local Government Area,” one of the sources said. The source, who craved for anonymity because he had no permission to speak on the incident, said they mystery behind the abduction would come to the fore soon. The forests between Dangulbi and Maru are known enclave of bandits who for years have been terrorising residents of neighbouring villages. The Zamfara State government said security operatives have launched a manhunt for the criminals. Governor Bello Matawalle has been pushing for a dialogue with bandits for peace to reign while the abduction happened hours after the state government said some repentant bandits had surrendered their arms. Boarding schools shut The Zamfara governor yesterday in a state-wide broadcast ordered the closure of all boarding schools in the state. Matawalle said his heart is with the families of those affected by the abduction. “My dear good people of Zamfara State, this is not a moment to trade blame. The recent twist in the spate of banditry brings to the fore the need for the adoption of a uniform strategy across all the affected states. “I appeal to the people of the state to remain calm and resist the evil machinations of those who would want to exploit the current situation to achieve political ends. Insha Allah, with our collective resolve, we would emerge out of this situation stronger,” he said. Second school attack in ten days News of the latest abduction comes nine days after armed men abducted some students of Government Science College, Kagara, Niger State. The government is yet to secure the release of the students. The first major attack on a school by an armed gang happened in Borno State, where over 250 students of the Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, were abducted on April 14, 2014. Four years after, gunmen hit Government Girls’ Science and Technical College, Dapchi, Yobe State, and abducted 119 students. In December 2020, over 300 male students were abducted at Government Science Secondary School, Kankara, Katsina State. Parents pull down doors, windows Some parents of the remaining students damaged some property in the school when denied access to their daughters. One of the teachers at the school said some angry parents pulled down doors and windows of the school after Friday’s kidnap incident. Speaking with Daily Trust Saturday, the teacher said many parents trooped to the school after the incident.
