Zamfara: Another Two Abducted Prospective Akwa Ibom Corps Members Regain Freedom

The National Youth Service Corps said it has again secured the release of two females among the abducted prospective Corps members, from Akwa Ibom, who were kidnapped in Zamfara on their way to the Orientation Camp in Sokoto.

It would be recalled that the Nigerian Army recently secured the release of a male and a female abductee, while efforts are seriously on-going to ensure the safe release of the remaining four prospective corps members.

In a statement signed by Eddy Megwa, Director, Press and Public Relations of the NYSC, “the DG, Brig Gen YD Ahmed hereby reassures Members of the public, especially parents of the remaining four abductees, that NYSC in conjunction with the security agencies would explore all strategies that would ensure that they are released unhurt and reunite with their families.

“Management also wishes to appreciate the overwhelming support being received from the Nigerian Army in its concerted efforts towards securing the release of the abducted prospective corps members.”
