The Kaduna State Government, this evening, announced that bandits have killed two more kidnapped students of Greenfield University.

This was contained in a statement by the Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan.

Aruwan said the corpses had been evacuated to a mortuary.

“On a sad note, security agencies have just reported to the Kaduna State Government the recovery of two more dead bodies of Greenfield University students, killed by armed bandits today, Monday 26th April 2021.

“The retrieved corpses have been evacuated to a mortuary, and the university has been notified of the development.

“The Government of Kaduna State under the leadership of Malam Nasir El-Rufai is saddened by this evil perpetrated against innocent students abducted while pursuing their education for a glorious future,” the statement says.

“The government sends its deep empathy to their families and the university management, and prays for the repose of their souls.

“The Government will update the citizenry on further developments,” the statement adds.

The suspected bandits who kidnapped scores of Greenfield University students, last week, and demanded a ransom of N800 million, have now killed five of the abductees.
