The Kebbi State Police Command has stated that the vehicle used to kidnap students from the Federal Government Girls College (FGGC) in Birnin-Yauri community of the state, belongs to a high court judge in the same state.
Kebbi police spokesman, Nafi’u Abubakar, disclosed that the van was hijacked by bandits on Birnin-Yauri Road.
Abubakar added that the number of students missing after the attack is yet to be ascertained.
