We ate once in two days, Kankara schoolboys reveal

Some students of Government Science Secondary School, Kankara, Katsina State have narrated their ordeal in the hands of their abductors.

The schoolboys returned to Katsina on Friday after being with their abductors since December 11.

They met with Governor Aminu Masari at the State House.

One of them told the news media that they were served mainly cassava and at irregular times.

“Sometimes it took two days before we ate in the bush,” the student said.

Another boy said they were made to defecate in the same place where they slept.

“In the night, the place where we sleep is the place we also defecate,” he said, adding “It is only in terms of security that we have problem. The school is far from the town so before the police and army could come, they had taken us away.”
