Attack On Confluence University: Kogi Government On Top Of The Situation-Fanwo
The Kogi State Commissioner for Information and Communications, Mr Kingsley Fanwo has said that the state government has put all necessary machineries in motion to rescue the students of Confluence University of Science and Technology, Osara, who were kidnapped by gunmen, who invaded the university on Thursday May 9, 2024.
Fanwo said in a statement dated May 10, 2024, that the Kogi State Government received a very disturbing news at about 9pm on Thursday, May 9, 2024 that the Confluence University of Science and Technology was invaded by kidnappers.
“Immediately the report was received, the Kogi State Governor, His Excellency Alh. Ahmed Usman Ododo activated the security architecture to track the kidnappers and ensure the abducted students are rescued and the abductors apprehended.
“Hundreds of local hunters who understand the terrain as well as the conventional security agents are currently combing the area to ensure safe rescue of the abducted students who were kidnapped in the classrooms. So far, nine students have been reported missing.
“We wish to assure students, parents and the entire people of Kogi State that the Government is on top of the situation and all the abducted students will be rescued alive. Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo has also directed that security agents be positioned around all tertiary institutions in the State,” he said.
The Commissioner then commended the local hunters and other security agents who he said rose stoutly to engage the kidnappers.
According to him, “their gallantry and dedication ensured that the kidnappers did not have a field day which would have been more calamitous.
“The State Government will spare nothing in ensuring that all the students abducted are safely rescued and reunited with their families. We won’t submit to terror. We shall prevail.”
