Residents abducted during the deadly terrorist attack on Woro in Kaiama Local Government Area of Kwara State have regained their freedom.
This was announced on Wednesday in a brief statement posted on the official Facebook page of the state government, which praised President Bola Tinubu, security agencies and all those involved in securing the victims’ release.
Authorities have yet to disclose the number of victims released, the circumstances surrounding the development, or whether any conditions were attached to the release.
“Woro kidnap victims regain freedom,” the statement read. “Alhamdulillah and kudos to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR, security forces, and everyone who played a role in this huge feat. We are grateful!.”
PREMIUM TIMES reported that more than 100 people, including women and children, were abducted in an attack on the community in early February.
