Terrorists holding 176 abducted women in Woro, Kwara State, issue threats that they will “marry the beautiful ones” and “kill the rest,” according to reports from the captives’ families. The families say they raise more than ₦155 million through community crowdfunding to secure the women’s release. They allege that the armed group rejects the ransom money despite the payments raised by relatives and community members, leaving the victims in captivity.
Both outlets describe the same central claims: the number of captives, the location in Woro community in Kwara State, the amount collected through crowdfunding, and the reported threats made by the terrorists toward the women. The reports also indicate that, as of the time of publication, efforts to negotiate release have not succeeded because the ransom is said to have been rejected. No additional confirmed details about the identity of the perpetrators, the conditions of detention, or the response of security agencies are provided in the cited summaries.
