Following the torture and abuse of the abducted Abuja-Kaduna train passengers as released by the terrorists in a video that went viral in the early hours of the weekend in Nigeria,
Some of the torture-train victims who pleaded with the government and the international community to intervene and ensure their release from the terrorist den claimed the terrorists had not planned for their long stay.
According to the person who speaks on behalf of the victims, the government’s failure to fulfill the conditions outlined by the terrorists hinders the negotiation deals that will enable their families to come for their evacuation.
Also, an elderly woman, who is believed to be between the ages of 85-90, was seen laying curses on the government in the Hausa language (Allah ya isa) for failing to secure their release, and that they voted APC and President Muhammadu Buhari on conditions to secure the north and the country.
Similarly, the voices of the torture train victims in the background were calamities, crying and grovelling in vain, pleading and throwing words of displeasure at the governments while the spokesperson kept addressing the fear, trauma, and critical conditions they are experiencing.
However, the terrorist claimed that the government is to be blamed for the conditions the captives are currently experiencing, according to the unknown person who also addressed on behalf of the terrorist.
We are aware of your plans to ensure you save the victims using gun powers, but we know you can’t do that as we see your plans as dead on arrival. He continued.
Should the government fail to meet their conditions, then this place will be an abattoir, and the number of casualties will be a moment of regret. He added
However, a family member of one of the abducted victims, who requested anonymity, expressed concern about the condition of his two sisters. According to him, the government had no positive plans for their loved ones.
We have been blocked from negotiating with the terrorists and the number of days of torture our family is experiencing is rising above our bearing.
We appeal to the public to pray for us, our loved ones, the international communities, the government, and the NGOs should intervene as a matter of urgency. He added
