Five of the kidnapped students of the Federal College of Forestry Mechanization in Kaduna state have regained their freedom.

A statement released by the state’s Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, says the Nigerian military informed the state government that five of the many kidnapped students were recovered this afternoon and are presently in a military facility where they are undergoing a thorough medical check-up.
