Kaduna: Sheikh Gumi not involved in release of Kuriga students – Gov Sani

Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani has disassociated himself from the release of the pupils abducted in the Kuriga region of the state by notorious Islamist preacher Sheikh Ahmad Gumi.

Sani claimed that although Gumi was not involved, he had volunteered to talk to the bandits for the student’s release.

He revealed this on Sunday Politics on Channels Television.

Bandits abducted 137 pupils from the Chikun Local Government Area of the state on March 7, 2024.

Early on Sunday morning, the governor declared that the students who had been abducted would be freed.

The Nigerian Military verified the report, stating that the students had been saved from Zamfara State.

Sani, however, denied rumors that a ransom was paid to secure the students’ release.

Sani said, “All those speculations you are hearing today are a figment of some people’s imagination.

“I can tell you that without any fear of contradiction. There was nothing like Gumi in this operation. I can tell you. I won’t undermine the efforts of our Armed Forces.”
