It is surely a tough watch. Boko Haram have released a footage to confirm that abducted students of the Government Science Secondary school in Kankara, Katsina State, are in their custody.
The students were abducted by the terrorist group in their dormitories on Friday, December 11.
On Monday, December 14, the sect members released an audio claiming responsibility for the abduction.
HumAngle reports that in a 4 minutes 28 seconds audio released on Monday night December 14, the leader of the deadly terror group, Abubakar Shekau, said contrary to claims made in some quarters, it is yet to make any demands.
“What happened in Katsina was done to promote Islam and discourage un-Islamic practices as Western education is not the type of education permitted by Allah and his Holy Prophet.
They are also not teaching what Allah and his Holy Prophet commanded. They are rather destroying Islam. It may be subtle, but Allah the Lord of the skies and earths knows whatever is hidden. May Allah promote Islam. May we die as Muslims.”
In a nutshell, we are behind what happened in Katsina,” HumAngle quotes him as saying
According to HumAngles, the sect group today, December 17, released a six minutes and 30 seconds long video that features speeches from Shekau and one of the schoolboys who looked distraught and bloodied.
In the heartbreaking and disturbing video, tens of other young boys could be seen behind him, all covered in dust and appearing to be within a forest area.

A student who spoke urged the FG to settle amicably with their abductors and advised against the use of military force in rescuing them.
”All the Army that has come here to help us, please send them back. They can do nothing to them. Please sir, send all the soldiers and jet back. We need your assistance” one of the abducted students say
