Kidnappers Issues FG Deadly Ultimatum
Armed attackers who kidnapped 176 women and children in Woro community, Kaiama, have issued a one-week deadline to the Nigerian government, threatening to kill the captives if their demands are not met.
The warning has heightened fear across the area and drawn urgent attention from security authorities.
The mass abduction happened during a raid on the rural settlement, leaving families shattered and residents fleeing for safety.
Community sources said the victims include mostly women and minors, raising concern over their welfare and the scale of the crisis.
Local leaders say the attackers have made contact, pressing for concessions while holding the victims in unknown locations.
Security agencies have since stepped up efforts in the region, but there has been no public confirmation of progress in negotiations or rescue operations.
The development adds to growing insecurity in parts of the country, where kidnappings for ransom remain a major threat.
Residents are calling for swift government action to secure the victims’ release and restore calm in the community.
