President Bola Tinubu has welcomed the release of 24 schoolgirls kidnapped in Maga, Kebbi. The abduction, which happened after soldiers left the area, sparked further kidnappings in Kwara and Niger.

All 38 victims in Eruku have been freed, and 50 Niger students earlier feared missing have returned home. Tinubu praised security forces and urged them to intensify efforts to rescue those still in captivity.
