Hours after abducted Kankara schoolboys were released by their captors, some of the rescued students have started recounting their experiences while in captivity.
Recall that the 344 abducted students arrived Katsina from Zamfara state earlier today December 18.
One of the rescued school boys identified as Aminu when he featured in an interview with Channels TV said he and others suffered while in the bush.
”We suffered in the bush. Infact, we were hungry in the bush. It took up to two days before we ate in the bush. They usually gave us Cassava to eat.
I am not feeling fine. I am sick”he said
Another student who gave his name as Abubakar said;
”At the time we were there, the place was very cold and the food we were taking was just bread and groundnut cake and cassava. The place we were sleeping is the same place we were defecating. In the night if yiu say yiu want to go and urinate or defecate, they would beat you and ask you to go back and sleep.”
He said except Government provides security in his school, he will not like to return.
”Nobody amongst us is thinking of going back to that school unless if some forces are there to guide us and control us.
The school is far away from the town and that is why when they came, before the police and army could come to the school, they had gathered us and packed us into the forest. It is only in terms of security that we have problem at the school”he said.
