The abduction of students of St. Albert the Great Institute of Philosophy in Fayit Community, Jama’a Local Government Area of Kaduna State has been confirmed by the police.

Speaking to reporters in Kaduna on Tuesday, the state command’s Public Relations Officer (PRO), ASP Mohammed Jalige, has now confirmed the abduction.
