The security agencies under the coordination of the NSA are working tirelessly to ensure that all those who have been taken into unlawful custody are freed without paying any ransom,” Idris said.Earlier, the NSA said the five victims were rescued following the combined efforts of security agencies which led to ‘swift’ search and rescue operation.Responding, one of the rescued victims, Alabelewe was quoted as thanking the NSA and his team for the intervention.“The rescue mission which brought us out of the bush yesterday gave us hope in our country and gave us confidence to believe that the government is serious about tackling this problem of kidnapping.
