Bandits on Tuesday threatened to slaughter victims of the Kaduna-Abuja train attack if the Federal Government fails to honour their demands.
Recall that a few days ago, Tukur Mamu, a negotiator between the bandits and the Federal Government raised an alarm over the health condition of the victims, as they are being bitten by snakes and reptiles.
He also said that one of the victims was injured after being shot by one of the terrorists, which they claimed was an accidental discharge.

However, one of the group members in an audio circulating on Tuesday threatened to slaughter the victims because the federal government failed to seek the release of the victims.
A Kaduna-based publisher, Tukur Mamu while confirming the authenticity of the audio, said it is real and the group picked today (Wednesday) to carry out the threat.
Mamu has been an intermediary between the group and the government.
Many said, “These people became provoked on Monday after giving us another opportunity. I was crying and pleading with them on audio that since there is a delay from the government why can’t they discuss with the family members directly to negotiate the victims’ release. So based on the plea they agreed to negotiate directly with the victims’ families.
“But they said they are giving us till Wednesday that if there is nothing concrete from those that are interested in negotiation they will start slaughtering some of the victims.”
