Bandits Release Video of Abducted Passengers in Niger State

Bandits Release Video of Abducted Passengers in Niger State.

The suspected bandits that abducted 21 passengers in Kundu village, near Zungeru in Yakila District of Rafi Local Government Area of Niger State has released a picture and video showing the victims.

The passengers who were on Niger State Transport Authority bus were abducted on Sunday.

It was gathered that the incident happened around 3 pm. when the bandits waited in ambush as the public transport vehicle ran into the blockade.

In a video clip spotted on Tuesday, the passengers were seen pleading with President Muhammadu Buhari-led government to come to their aid.

The 45-second video spotted by our correspondents shows the bandits armed with sophisticated weapons and also speaking in Arabic, Hausa and Kanuri.

A member of the banditry group said, “God is the greatest, all praise is due to God alone.”

Boko Haram had in June 2020 released a video and confirmed its link with the armed groups operating in the North-West and North-Central part of the country.

 “Special greetings from your jihadi brethren in the Lake Chad Basin. Greetings to our leader Abu Muhammad Ibn Muhammad Abubakar Asshakawy,” a member of the sect said.

 “My second message is for all of the Mujahideen, especially those close to us. We send you Islamic greetings.”

 “My other message is for all the unbelievers in the world. Repent, you still have time. And if you don’t, wait and see what will happen to you very soon.”

 “My message to Kuffar (unbelievers). O’Kuffar, you have time to repent to Allah before Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala punishes you with our hands,” the English speaker warned.

 “Soon you will see what is happening in your marketplaces. Soon you’ll see what is happening in your offices.”

 “Soon you’ll see what is happening in your homes. Anywhere you are, soon you’ll see what is happening.”

Two months after, the group released another video where its members gathered in an open field said to be located in Niger State to celebrate Eid-el Kabir, a Muslim festival.

The footage also showed about three fighters sending Eid greetings in Hausa, English, and Fulfulde to viewers.

“It is we the Jamahatu Ali Sunna li Dawatul Jihad in the location of Niger State. We want to send our Sallah salutation, first of all to our imam, Abu Muhammad Ibn Abubakar Shekau,” one of the terrorists dressed in a Nigerian police uniform said.
