Terrorists who kidnapped the Abuja -Kaduna train passengers have threatened to kill some and sell others as slaves unless the federal government complied with their demands.
The daredevil gunmen disclosed this in a fresh video released at the weekend.
In the viral video, the remaining kidnapped victims were shown crying and wailing due to severe flogging by the terrorists.
One of the captives who spoke in Hausa on behalf of other victims said, ” I am one of those involved in the train mishap. That train belonged to the Federal Republic of Nigeria. The Government has the responsibility to rescue us, but has failed.”
“We called on our relations who were willing to rescue us but the Nigerian government due to being insensitive to our plight did not allow our relations to rescue us .”
“This is why we are calling on the big nations of the world such as England, America, France and the remaining international community, the likes of Saudi Arabia, to intervene in this matter with a view to finding a solution .”
“Truly, these people ( terrorists) , their intention was not for us to even spend one week in captivity. They wanted their demands to be met so that they release us.But Nigeria showed no concern over this matter, showing no care.”
“We are therefore calling on these big nations of the world, France, Saudi Arabia, England and America, the international community, ECOWAS, AU, they should please help and intervene in this matter.”
“They should come and help us so that a solution could be reached that will enable us reunite with our families,” he said.
Amidst wailing and crying, one of the terrorists wielding an AK 47 rifle, who spoke in Hausa, said,
” you should understand, look properly it’s not our intention to , but it’s the outcome of what the Nigerian government is doing, setting a committee, a tea party in Kaduna to deliberate on how to rescue these people. They are there, enjoying the tea.”
“You should know that there is nothing that the committee can do. They can’t do anything. Are you not relying on guns? Your aircraft and your guns are like spiders web to Allah. We are for Allah, we are doing it for Allah. We are not afraid of anybody.”
“You should know that this is a little that you’ve seen. Know that, if our demands are not met, this place will become an abattoir.”
