The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has stated that it has not received any official notification regarding the reported release of 100 students who were recently abducted in Niger State.
In a statement on Monday, the Chairman of the Association, Niger State Chapter, Bishop Bulus Yohanna, noted that it would have been cheery news to learn of the abductees’ freedom; however, no news of their current whereabouts has been delivered to the grieving communities.
“It will be a thing of joy if some of our children have been released. We have been praying and waiting for their return. If it is true, then it is a cheering news. However, we are not officially aware and have not been duly notified.
‘We hope and pray it’s true and will be looking forward to when the remaining will be released”, the statement read.
