Five Abducted Abuja Sisters Regain Freedom

Five of the six sisters from the Al-Kadriyar family, who were abducted by bandits in the Bwari area of Abuja, have been successfully freed on Saturday night.

At the time of filing this report, it is unclear whether the girls were rescued by security forces or released following a ransom payment by their family

However, Kabiru Aminu, the uncle of the girls who disclosed their release, posted a video on his Twitter handle @kabiru_aminu, showcasing the sisters and their relatives jubilating.

“#Najeebahandhersisters are home right now, someone please wake me up!” he tweeted.

“#Najeebahandhersiste.These girls are strong,” he added in afollow-upp tweet.

The six sisters were recently abducted along with their father.

The kidnappers later released their father, demanding that he secure N60 million as ransom for the release of his daughters before Friday, January 12th

Efforts to raise funds involved urging Nigerians to donate whatever they could into a designated bank account, but the amount collected fell short.

Dissatisfied with the outcome, the gunmen allegedly killed the eldest of the six sisters and left her body in a location for her parents to bury

After the brutal killing of Najeebah, the Nigeria Police Force declared an escalation in efforts to rescue the remaining victims.
They assured Nigerians of ongoing initiatives to prevent further kidnapping cases nationwide

Kanyi Daily recalls that Nigerian comedian, Adebowale Adedayo, popularly known as Mr Macaroni, had tackled the Federal Government over its failure to address the escalating insecurity in the country.
