As at the time of filing this report, all efforts to reach Kaduna police spokesperson, Yakubu Sabo, proved abortive.
The girls were abducted on October 3 at the mixed-gender school on the outskirts of Kaduna town. State and law enforcement authorities immediately swung into action to ensure the release of the girls.
It was later decided that the parents and school officials should be allowed to conduct back-channel negotiations with the kidnappers to avoid jeopardizing the safety of the victims.
