From Captivity to Freedom: Kaduna Man’s Transformation After 9 Months with Bandits
I met my friend Junior yesterday at a gathering and could hardly recognize him after years apart. The once sturdy 63-year-old looked frail and defeated as he shared how bandits held him captive for nine months. He told me he spent every day sitting under a single tree, swarmed by flies and tormented by ticks both in and outside his clothes. Bathing was a luxury and refusing any scrap of food meant risking death by hunger. Hearing his account melted my heart. His resilience carried him through a nightmare that thousands of Nigerians face today. We must act now with practical measures to end these abductions and protect our communities.
