Except the Federal Government and the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) move and act fast, one of the leaders of the terrorists group that attacked the Abuja-Kaduna bound train on March 29, 2022 has vowed to marry 21 year old Azurfa Lois John, who was abducted during the attack.
Tukur Mamu, Publisher of Kaduna based Desert Herald and Media Consultant to controversial Islamic cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, who withdrew as one of the negotiators, said this to newsmen on Friday following the release of four other hostages in Kaduna.
Mamu disclosed that through credible information that if urgent steps were not taken, a 21-year-old Arzurfa Lois John might be married off to one of the terrorists as was in the case of Leah Sharing, the Dapchi schoolgirl.
According to him, one of the terrorists’ commanders was said to be in love with Lois John.
Mamu warned that the marriage by the terrorist leader to Azurfa Lois John, who is a student of Kaduna State Univerity, could take place any moment from now.
Mamu said: “The abductors as they have done in the case of Leah Sharibu are planning to marry her any moment from now.
“One of the top commanders is said to be in love with her. This important information should be treated with the urgency it deserves. Even though I know that releasing this information will not only unsettle her immediate family and loved ones but Nigerians as a whole, it is necessary to do so to avoid the repeat of Leah Sharibu’s case.
“I advise CAN in particular not to politicize the issue or reduce it to mere press releases as I have seen in the past but to work closely with relevant authorities to engage the abductors on her case as soon as possible before it is too late.”
