All School Kids Safe in Niger State

Good news for Niger State and Nigeria. The last 130 schoolchildren are safe. They were taken from a school. This was a sad kidnapping. No students are held now.

About 100 children were let go before. Now, all people are with their families. We do not know how they were freed. The government helped quietly. All students are safe. Leaders call this a success.

This kidnapping shows a big problem. Nigeria has problems with armed groups. Dangerous gangs also hurt people. They take people for money. Many people were taken at first. Some students escaped.

The freed students will go to Minna. They will get medical help. They need help for their feelings. This is important. They need support to get better.

The government did well. But kidnappings still happen. We need better security plans. Leaders are working on this. This happy news reminds us of problems.
