Senator Abdul Ningi, representing Bauchi Central, calls on Nigeria’s Federal Government and security agencies to swiftly prosecute and publicly parade suspects arrested in connection with the kidnapping of schoolchildren and teachers in Oyo State. Speaking during Senate plenary on Wednesday, Ningi says those responsible should face the full weight of the law and argues that visible, timely justice is needed to deter future similar crimes. He warns that delays in prosecution could weaken public confidence in the justice system, and urges security agencies to treat those already arrested as examples. The reports cite that the abduction involved gunmen taking pupils and teachers from Baptist Nursery and Primary School, LA Primary School, and Community Grammar School in Oriire Local Government Area of Oyo State. The victims are reported to have spent 56 days in captivity before being rescued by a joint team of security operatives on Friday. Ningi’s comments reflect broader demands for transparency and accountability in how the case is handled, with emphasis on ensuring legal processes proceed without unnecessary delay.
