Maharazu Tsiga, the former Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), has shared a chilling account of his 56-day ordeal in captivity. Tsiga was abducted on February 5, 2025, from his hometown of Tisga in Katsina State and was rescued on Wednesday.
Speaking in Abuja during the handover of 19 rescued victims to their families, Tsiga described how he and other hostages were held in a dense forest surrounded by hills, teeming with dangerous animals. "A day before I left, we saw hyenas parading, searching for food. And what kind of food? Us, human beings," he recounted.
Tsiga revealed that the kidnappers used high-profile captives as human shields during aerial attacks. He also shared a harrowing experience where a rocket aimed at them failed to explode. "They carried that rocket to where I was sleeping and hid it there so that immediately I woke up and touched it, it would explode. But God is merciful," he said.
The former NYSC DG emphasized the importance of collective security efforts, stating that security is a collective responsibility. He urged citizens to provide timely and accurate intelligence to security agencies, stressing that they rely on good information to act effectively.
