Shehu Sani, a former Kaduna Central Senator has reacted to
the video of terrorist group, ISAWP, assaulting the remaining passengers
abducted from the Kaduna-Abuja train.
Sani, in a series of tweets via his Twitter handle, on
Sunday, told the Federal Government that it should either free the remaining
abducted passengers or negotiate for their release.
DAILY POST reports that some terrorists kidnapped over 60
passengers from the Abuja-Kaduna bound train on March 28.
Since the abduction, some of those abducted have been
released, while others are still being held captive by the terrorists.
However, in a viral video at the weekend, the terrorists
were seen flogging the remaining captives.
“The video clip of the torture of Kaduna bound train
hostages followed the same pattern with that of Federal College of Agric
Mechanisation, Kaduna.The difference was that women were spared. They are
sending a message. The options remains two: free them or negotiate for their
release.
“There has never been any successful rescue operations for
most mass kidnappings of students, farmers or passengers in Kaduna, other than
ransom payments by families. That is why the terrorists in the video called the
committee set up by the Government as ‘Tea drinking committee’.
“When terrorists post video clips of the torture of their
victims, they are waging a psychological war to bring attention to their
demands. We don’t have a thick forest in the North West to warrant four months
of this ordeal. Time is of essence for the Government to act now,” he wrote.
