‘Everyone Is Moody In Aso Villa Over Abduction Of Oyo School Children’ – Jibrin

A member of the House of Representatives from Kano State, Abdulmumin Jibrin, has said President Bola Tinubu is deeply troubled by the spate of schoolchildren abductions across the country.

Naija News reports that Jibrin said the mood at the Presidential Villa in Abuja was gloomy because of the continued captivity of abducted pupils.

He spoke on Wednesday night during an interview on Arise Television’s Prime Time.

The lawmaker sympathised with the families of abducted children and victims killed by kidnappers and bandits.

Jibrin stated, “The school children that were kidnapped, it’s actually a difficult thing to talk about; my sympathy goes to the families of those kidnapped kids and those who lost their lives in the hands of kidnappers and bandits.

“What I can assure you is that the president and his government are doing everything possible to see that the security situation is tackled.”

Jibrin said government officials were focused on securing the release of the victims.

“I’m just coming back from the Villa, and everybody is moody, and the matter is all about those kidnapped and their families,” he said.

Jibrin said Tinubu was working to address insecurity and ensure the safe return of the abducted children.

He added, “Let me tell you something, the last person that can be able to sleep that I know very well is the president.

“The president is doing everything possible to tackle the security situation. For immediate resolution, the government is doing everything possible to ensure those who have been kidnapped are returned to their families.”
