By Ibrahim Wuyo, Kaduna

Following abductions at the Leprosy Training Centre in Zaria on Sunday and that of students of Bethel Baptist High School, Kaduna on Monday, Speaker, Kaduna State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Yusuf Ibrahim Zailani has condemned the acts and commiserated with families of victims.

The Speaker in a statement signed by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ibrahim Dahiru Danfulani Monday, said such attacks were worrisome, even as everything possible was been done to protect the life and property of citizens.

“We woke up this morning to yet another depressing news of the abduction of students of the Bethel Baptist High School, Kaduna.”

“This is not cheering news, coming a day after the abduction at the Leprosy Training Centre, Zaria,” he said.

“While commiserating with families of those affected, I am greatly worried by the fact that these two recent abductions are targeted at key sectors of our society, we are doing everything possible to ensure the protection of lives and property.”

“As the Speaker of the State Assembly, am urging those perpetrating these criminal acts to repent, knowing that no religion supports criminality,” he said.
