Parents in rural communities of Faskari Local Government Area of Kastina State, where bandits abducted 39 children working on a farm, have pleaded with the government to rescue their children from their captors.
VOP news gathered that bandits in their numbers surrounded a farm on Sunday, where a number of people including boys and girls were working and abducted over 40 of them.
A source in Mairuwa community, one of the worst hit during the attack said the bandits surrounded the farm and started shooting sporadically before abducting the labourers.
