Kaduna Train Attack: Bandits Planning To Marry Off 21 Year Old Kidnaped Passenger To Top Commander, Says Negotiator

21-year-old Azurfa Lois John, a female victim of the Abuja-Kaduna train attack and a 300-level student of the Kaduna State University - may soon be married to a top commander of the bandits says negotiator Tukur Mamu.

Azurfa Lois John was abducted alongside other passengers from the Kaduna-Abuja train on the 28th of March, 2022.

The Publisher of Desert Herald, who is also the negotiator of victims held hostage, Tukur Mamu, made the revelation in a statement he issued on Friday.

Tukur Mamu, who is also a media consultant to Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, a Kaduna-based Islamic cleric, yesterday revealed that he gathered from reliable sources that one of the top commanders of the terrorists was planning to marry her any moment.

According to Tukur Mamu, “This is to alert the federal government and especially the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) that I can confirm through credible information at my disposal that if urgent action is not taken to immediately secure the release of the youngest victim of the train attack, a 21 year old Azurfa Lois John, the abductors as they have done in the case of Leah Sharibu are planning to marry her any moment from now.”

“It is necessary to do so to avoid the repeat of Leah Sharibu’s case,” he warned.

He added, “One of the top commanders is said to be in love with her.”

The negotiator advised CAN, in particular, not to politicize the issue or reduce it to mere press releases as has seen in the past but to work closely with relevant authorities to engage the abductors on her case as soon as possible before it is late.

“I pray that in view of the uncertainties which is becoming alarming, the federal government will also act very fast to ensure the release of all the remaining victims,” he advised.
