Bandits abducted many travellers and students along Birnin-Gwari- Kaduna highway in the early hours of Tuesday morning, May 31.
Public Relations Officer (PRO) of Birnin Gwari Emirate Progressive Union (BEPU) Idris Saidu, disclosed this in a statement made available to Nigerian Tribune on Tuesday in Kaduna.
Saidu said the abducted students were billed to write examinations for admission into the School of Health, Kaduna State University (Makarfi campus).

Those who were not lucky fell into the trap set by the bandits and were subsequently abducted.
