‘How we kidnapped the 3 school girls,’ Suspects

The girls have since been freed by men of the Nigerian police force.

 

You will recall that the girls were abducted at gun point from their school on February 29, 2016.

One of the suspects, Mr. Arigidi, who spoke to newsmen, said “We went to Maya bridge to enter canoe and went to the school around 8 p.m.

“After we gained entrance into the school, we took away three girls and we took them to our hideout. But along the line, we had disagreement between ourselves and I was actually the one that started it. I told other members of the gang that what we have done is not good and that I don’t like it.

“I know that security in Lagos State is now tight and I was telling others that there was no way we would get away with this kind of job considering the level of security in the state.”

Adding that “Three days after I ran away, operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) then arrested me somewhere in Majidun and that was how I told them how we planned the attack.”

Agiri also said “One thing I will like to say is that if not for the fact that I was arrested, they would not have seen the girls because I was the one that revealed everything to the police.”

Reports say the girls have since regained their freedom.
