Kaduna Governor Nasir Rufai also made it clear in a TV interview that he would not negotiate with the kidnappers and would refuse to pay the ransom.

Some students escaped. It was later reported to Kaduna’s security department.
In the early morning of the 12th, Nigerian security forces rushed to the scene to repel the militants and rescued 180 people. There are still 39 students missing.
