Mother Of Abducted, Pregnant FGC Yauri Student Dies
A mother of one of the abducted students of Federal Government College, FGC Birnin Yauri, in Kebbi State, has passed away after she learnt that her daughter was impregnated by a terrorist in captivity, PRNigeria learnt from credible sources.
The sources, who pleaded for anonymity, said the mother died as a result of ‘grave emotional and psychological trauma’.
The pregnant young mother is among 11 remaining female students of FGC Yauri yet to be released after gunmen abducted over 100 students and eight teachers after killing a policeman in the mixed boarding school on June 17, 2021.
A few days after the abduction, security operatives succeeded in rescuing some of the students and teachers while others escaped from the gunmen in the process of taking them away. The bandits also released the teachers and 30 of the students after ransom payments.
On the tragic demise of one of the mothers of the kidnapped students, a close family relative of the deceased told PRNigeria that the mother collapsed when the news of her daughter’s pregnancy broke.
“Before she passed away, our sister was bitterly worried about the condition of her abducted daughter. She was hit by a stroke and became paralyzed after the sad news.
“She kept asking herself why would the terrorists have the guts to sleep with her 15-year-old daughter, and impregnate her, in the process. She maintained that she could not welcome her daughter with a bastard, meaning she will have hatred for the child her daughter will deliver for their abductors,” said the family relative of the mother of the pregnant abducted student of FGC Yauri.
A local source who had confirmed the news of the ‘naming ceremony of the child, disclosed that two other students in the terrorists’ den also gave birth to a baby girl and boy.
“There are about four other female students who are pregnant now. One of them is due to give birth any moment from now,” he had said.
The 11 schoolgirls remain in captivity despite payment of ransom and prisoner swaps, at different times.
