Some social media users have expressed anger following reports that one Miss Folorunsho Ariyo was killed alongside Nabeeha Al-Kadriyar by bandits in the FCT.

Daily Trust had reported that kidnappers dumped the remains of four victims they executed around a former military checkpoint behind Idah Junction on the Bwari-Jere SCC Road in Kagarko LGA of Kaduna State.

Among the corpses so far identified are a secondary school student,  Folorunsho Ariyo, identified as the daughter of the Chief Legal Officer of the National Universities Commission (NUC); and a 500-level student of the Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, Nabeeha Al-Kadriyar.

While Ariyo was abducted along with her mother and three siblings two Sundays ago, Nabeeha was seized with her father and five of her female siblings on January 9.

In a chat with Daily Trust, Nabeeha’s uncle said they found the corpses of three other victims – two females and a male – when they went to pick the remains of their daughter.

Daily Trust gathered that Ariyo’s corpse was released to her family from the Umaru Musa Yar’adua General Hospital, Sabon-Wuse, Niger State, where it was deposited by the police.

The teenage girl was buried on Sunday, January 14, 2024, in the Dutse Cemetery, Abuja, while the other members of the family remain with their abductors.

A community leader in the area, John Alpha Dogo, said the bandits dragged the victims to the location on Friday night and executed them.

 The situation caused confusion in the two communities of Bagye and Pashin in Dnatan Chiefdom, with residents leaving in droves out of fear. 

 Dnata Chiefdom, carved out from Kagarko Chiefdom in 2022 by the Kaduna State Government, has been under bandits’ attacks lately.

 Meanwhile, details of the killing of Ariyo have elicited anger from X users, with many calling for an end to insecurity in the nation’s capital.
