Two students were yesterday night (Saturday), abducted from the Federal University Gusau in Zamfara State.
The students, a male and a female, were abducted in Sabon Garin Damba, where some of the students rent off-campus hostels. The community is a few kilometres from the university.
The Federal University Gusau is situated on the Funtua-Gusau highway. The university’s host communities – Sabon Gida and Damba – are among the areas vulnerable to terror attacks.
Northern Nigeria is witnessing incessant cases of terrorist activities, especially the abduction of students. In September, 24 students of the same Zamfara university were abducted by terrorists. Though some of the students were rescued, many remained with the terrorists.
