Social media activist Verydarkman has reacted to a newly circulated video purportedly showing some of the teachers and pupils abducted in Oyo State, calling on authorities to act urgently to secure their release.
The video reportedly featured the principal, Mrs. Alamu, making a fresh appeal from captivity while disputing claims that the abductors had demanded money, weapons, or the implementation of Sharia law.
Her remarks have added a new dimension to ongoing discussions about the conditions for the victims’ release.
Reacting to the footage, VeryDarkMan argued that the government’s priority should be the safe return of the children and teachers who have been held for more than two weeks.
He expressed the view that any realistic and verifiable demands capable of securing their freedom should be considered without delay, stressing that the welfare of the victims should take precedence over prolonged negotiations or political considerations.
The comments have generated intense reactions online, with many Nigerians continuing to call for urgent intervention and a resolution to the crisis.
Meanwhile, authorities have yet to provide comprehensive details regarding the authenticity of the video or the exact demands being made by the abductors.
Verydarkman said …
“Everything is very clear and I think their demand is very very realistic. I don’t think the government should wait any second. There should be any debate whether they talk one billion or not. It’s clear since they are the ones that recorded her. I personally think that is a very very good trade. Because these are just children that have been inside the bush for more than two weeks. I don’t think there is any reason to play smart if this is what they want. Please give them what they want let the kids come back home”
