Ogundoyin disclosed this while addressing the growing debate over whether governments should negotiate with kidnappers and terrorists to secure the freedom of victims.
The Speaker of the Oyo State House of Assembly, Adebo Ogundoyin, has revealed that terrorists holding abducted schoolchildren and teachers from Oriire Local Government Area of Oyo State are demanding weapons, money and concessions on future Nigerian laws as conditions for their release.
Ogundoyin disclosed this while addressing the growing debate over whether governments should negotiate with kidnappers and terrorists to secure the freedom of victims.
His comments come weeks after terrorists attacked schools and communities in Esiele and Yawota, abducting pupils, teachers and residents and triggering nationwide outrage.
Questioning the wisdom of yielding to the demands of the abductors, Ogundoyin suggested that the terrorists' conditions go beyond the payment of ransom.
