The Nigeria police high command has rescued two children abducted by bandits in Zamfara State.

Deputy spokesman of the police, CSP Isuku, said the victims were abducted in Jangebe in Talata Mafara Local Government Area of Zamfara State. He explained that the abductees were taken to an unknown forest in Katsina State, enduring a harrowing journey by foot and motorcycle. Throughout their captivity, these children were sustained on meagre rations of maize and salt, drinking water from a nearby stream, Isuku said.

“While we celebrate this successful rescue, we remain acutely aware of the ongoing challenges in our fight against kidnapping and other forms of violent crimes. Let me emphasize that the Nigeria Police Force, under the leadership of IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, is more determined than ever, to tackle kidnapping and other violent crimes head-on.

Lagos State Government on Wednesday disclosed that it recovered N183.7 for citizens from debt-related matters in the last year. It also stated that agencies under the Ministry of Justice attended to over 40,000 petitions from residents with the majority brought to a logical conclusion.

Organised labour has again rejected the N54,000 proposed by the Federal Government as a new minimum wage for Nigerian workers, saying it could not settle for a proposal that would result in income reduction for federal workers who are already receiving N77,000.
