Presidential aide Bayo Onanuga has alleged that the chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in Niger State, Rev. Dr Bulus Yohanna, is withholding information about last Friday’s abduction of students.
Onanuga made the allegation while speaking as a guest on Arise TV’s Prime Time on Monday, accusing Yohanna of obstructing efforts by the authorities to determine the actual number of abducted students.
According to Onanuga, claims by the CAN chairman that 51 abducted students had been rescued were false because they were never captured.
“I learnt when the bandits came in the night, the students were running helter-skelter, and some of them merely ran back to their homes.
