”We’ll soon fish out, prosecute Kidnappers of students” — FG

The Federal Government says it would soon fish out and prosecute kidnappers of Kaduna school children.

The information minister, Mohammed Idris said this in Kano on Wednesday in an interactive session with media executives and practitioners organised by the Ministry of Information and National Orientation.

He said President Bola Tinubu had directed all security agencies to expedite action toward ensuring that school children recently abducted in Kaduna were rescued unhurt and reunited with their families.

The minister advised journalists to desist from amplifying the activities of kidnappers and bandits on the pages of national dailies.

“Mr President is disturbed that journalists celebrate the activities of kidnappers and bandits on the pages of national dailies.

“He believes that such publicity encourages the unpatriotic elements,” he said.

He said that the federal government is currently putting adequate modalities in place to overhaul the agricultural sector towards ensuring food security.

“Mr President is insisting that Nigeria must be self sufficient in food production.

“Proactive measures have been adopted by the federal government to ensure adequate provision of  assorted fertilizer to farmers at subsidize rates,” he said .
