Former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has appealed to the abductors of schoolchildren recently kidnapped by gunmen to release them immediately, describing their condition as heartbreaking and a stark reminder of the country’s worsening security challenges.
Obi made the appeal in a statement posted on his verified social media account on Wednesday after images of the abducted children surfaced online.
Expressing concern over the condition of the victims, Obi said he was disturbed by what he described as evidence of physical abuse inflicted on the children.
