While narrating his experience in the hands of the terrorists, in an audio sent to our reporter via WhatsApp, he said it was hell being under terrorists captivity for three months.

He said it was unfortunate that he left Abuja, while on his way to Kaduna on March, 28, 2022 to attend education progarmme, which he said was organized by FCT UBEB.

He said he thanked God he did not sustain any injury during the attack but said some lives were lost while some sustained injuries.

The FCT UBEB boss, however, appreciated people of the FCT, especially members of the All Nigeria Conference of Principals of Secondary (ANCOPPS) as well as other well wishers.

“Good morning, my brothers and sisters in FCT ANCOPPS, and other well wishers. This is Dr Hassan Sule, I just want to extend my warm appreciation over prayers that led to our release by terrorists on Saturday,” he said.

He called for prayers for Nigeria to overcome the security challenges.
