‘We were told To Say Boko Haram kidnapped us,’ one of the rescued Kankara schoolboys has revealed.
A new revelation has been made concerning the over 300 schoolboys that were taken hostage by bandits recently in Katsina state.
One of the released boys of the Government Science Secondary School, Kankara, has disclosed that those who Kidnapped them did not appear like members of dreaded terrorist group, Boko Haram.

In a video that has since gone viral, the schoolboy stated that he and other kidnapped boys were asked to say they were kidnapped Boko Haram members.
Quizzed on if their assailants were abductors were bandits or Boko Haram members, the students said, “I do not know who they are but I was told to say they’re Boko Haram from the gang of Abu Shekau.”
When questioned further about his experience, said, “From what I experienced sincerely they are not Boko Haram.”

Students numbering over 600 were abducted from their school in Kankara by suspected bandits over a week ago. Many of the boys did escaped from their abductors along the way, but 344 were still ferried into the forest by the bandits.
The 344 schoolboys have since been released to the Katsina state government on Friday last week after spending exactly a week in the custody of the bandits.
