"Nigeria Deploys Troops to Rescue Hundreds of Kidnapped Students in Ongoing Crisis"

Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has deployed troops to rescue over 250 students kidnapped by gunmen from a school in the country's northwest, marking one of the largest mass abductions in three years. This incident follows another mass kidnapping in Borno state. The ongoing challenge of heavily armed criminal gangs targeting villages and schools for ransom payments has prompted calls for increased security measures to protect students and civilians.
