VIDEO: Five Abducted Abuja Sisters Regain Freedom
Five of the six sisters of the Al-Kadriyar family who were kidnapped by bandits in the Bwari area of Abuja recently have regained their freedom on Saturday night.
As of the time of filing this report, our correspondent could not independently verify whether the girls were rescued by security operatives or were released after their family paid ransom.
However, an uncle to the girls, Kabiru Aminu, who disclosed the news of their release, posted a video on his X handle @kabiru_aminu, showing the sisters and their relatives jubilating.
“#Najeebahandhersisters are home right now, someone please wake me up!” he tweeted.
An X user, Adamu_Asiya_, who identified herself as a cousin to the kidnapped sisters and had announced the kidnap, also confirmed the release of the five sisters.
She wrote on X, “Day 19: Alhamdulillah. #Najeebahandhersisters are back home.
They got released last night. Thank y’all for your efforts and prayers🙏🏾.
“Don’t forget Nabeeha and Uncle Abdulfattah in your prayers. May Allah forgive their shortcomings and grant them Aljannatul Firdaus.”
Najeebah and her sisters were abducted on January 9, alongside their father.
The hoodlums reportedly killed the oldest of the six girls, Nabeeha, and dumped her body somewhere for her parents to bury.
