Niger state governor, Alhaji Abubakar Sani Bello has lamented that the attitude of the federal government towards the rescue of the Kagara students and staff were not forthcoming and encouraging.

He claimed that the federal government had left Niger state to its fate.

Speaking while playing host to former Abia state governor and Chief Whip of the Senate, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu who paid him a sympathy visit at the government house, Bello said that the federal government had left the state to shoulder all the financial responsibilities which the current spate of insecurity in the state has caused.

He noted that the efforts of the state government towards rescuing the Abductees were not really showing because of the federal government attitude.

He stated that the federal government had sent a delegation to the state and deplored 300 mobile policemen to the state but left the government to shoulder all the financial responsibility.

The Governor further stated that the state government will rescue the abducted school children with or without the support of the federal government.
