Nigerians have taken to social media to express anger as a new video purportedly showing ISWAP terrorists flogging 43 Abuja-Kaduna train passengers still in their captivity surfaced online.
Recall that motorcycle-riding terrorists attacked a Kaduna-bound train on March 28, killing nine passengers and abducting no fewer than 61 persons.
Since the abduction, 19 abductees have been released, including Managing Director of the Bank of the Agriculture, Alwan Hassan, who was the first to regain freedom after N100 million was reportedly paid as ransom.
On Sunday, the terrorists released a video showing the remaining kidnap victims being flogged.
The video has since gone viral on social media, drawing angry reactions from many Nigerians.
Read reactions below:
Watching the video of terrorists flogging Kaduna-Abuja train victims broke my heart so much. And Buhari is still saying people should vote Tinubu to continue from where he stopped.
Enikure!

118 Days: new video shows abductors flogging passengers abducted onboard Abuja – Kaduna train on March 28.
43 passengers remain in captivity. The train was owned and operated by the Nigeian Government.
This will also be part of the legacies of @MBuhari. pic.twitter.com/3naTbnnzQg

You can subject all the members of APC to what those Abuja-Kaduna train passengers are going through and they will still come out to not just vote Buhari for a third term, but abuse anybody who suggests any other course of action.

Thoughts and prayers for the kidnapped victims of the Abuja-Kaduna train who are still in captivity. May God make things easy for them. I urge the federal government to hasten their release from these terrorists.

It is sad to watch that video of the Abuja-Kaduna hostages being tortured mercilessly by terrorists. We can't afford to miss it this time. Yet, many youths are distracted. They claim to be multi-tasking. If you can't see the bleak future of Nigeria now, I don't know when you will

Terrorists have released what seemed a propaganda video, showing them brutalising Abuja-Kaduna train passengers in order to hasten ransom payment by govt or families. The same criminals had previously claimed they don’t mete out corporal punishment against their captives.

I strongly condemned the torturing of the Abuja-Kaduna train Kidnapped victims.This is barbaric & inhumane.Imagine we have a sitting president who is a former General. Since we have clueless leaders we will pray to Almighty Allah to destroy these people and their sponsors,Ameen.
