Gov. Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State has promised to do everything possible to secure the release of the four abducted female students of Nasarawa State University Keffi.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that gunmen had at about 10:30 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 9, abducted four 100 level students of the state university from their residence at Angwan Kare, Keffi Local Government Area.

Sule, during a meeting at the Government House on Thursday in Lafia, made the commitment to ensure that the students were released unhurt.

He said that his administration was working in collaboration with the security agencies with a view to secure the release of the girls.

According to him, talks are ongoing with security agencies aimed at securing the release of the kidnapped students.

“Just this morning, I spoke with the Vice Chancellor on what steps to take. We have been discussing with the security agencies to see to the release of these children.

“We pray that these students will be released as quickly as possible,” he stated.

He assured members of the public that the government would beef up security in and around schools in the state to protect staff and students.

The governor added that the government was working assiduously to curtail the ugly trend of abduction of students.
