DSS Rescues Four Remaining Kidnapped Polytechnic Students in Zamfara
The agency said the rescue was carried out without ransom and one suspected gang member was arrested as all seven abducted students regained freedom.
- On Thursday, The SSS rescued the four remaining abducted students of the Federal Polytechnic, Kaura Namoda, ending their seven-week captivity in Zamfara State.
- Armed men initially seized seven students from a residence in the Low-Cost area of Kaura Namoda on June 2, though One escaped during the attack and Two were released earlier.
- Intelligence-Led operations by The SSS secured freedom without ransom payments, with the agency arresting one suspected kidnapper while others were "neutralised," a term Nigerian security agencies use to indicate suspects were killed.
- The abduction was among several attacks that prompted the House of Representatives to summon Nigeria's service chiefs and National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu in June, as lawmakers described North-west insecurity as a humanitarian crisis.
- This rescue follows recent SSS operations that secured Samuel Okunsebor, dean of the Faculty of Agriculture at Nasarawa State University, as the agency continues efforts against kidnapping and other security threats across the country.
