 Catholic Diocese Lists Names of 265 Students and Teachers Still in Captivity


The Catholic Diocese of Kontagora in Niger State has released a list of 265 students and teachers from St Mary’s School, Papiri, who remain in the hands of their abductors following a shocking attack earlier this month.


On November 21, armed men stormed the school, abducting a total of 315 individuals, including 303 students and 12 teachers.


The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in Niger State reported that 50 students have already escaped from captivity, bringing some relief to families, but 265 people — 239 nursery and primary students, 14 secondary students, and 12 teachers — are still missing.


Authorities and community leaders are intensifying efforts to secure the release of the remaining victims. Families and residents continue to live in fear, as the abduction underscores the growing insecurity in the region and the persistent threats faced by schools in northern Nigeria.
