Jangebe schoolgirls have revealed that their kidnapers gave out their phone numbers to them and promised to visit their parents to seek their hands in marriage, Daily Trust reports.
Several girls who spoke with the paper, said their abductors professed love to them and promised to contact them over the phone to find out if they had accepted the marriage proposal.
One student, Hassatu Umar Anka, said their abductors advised them to abandon school to get married.
“When we were about to be released, some of them came and starting pointing at us and saying, ‘We love some of you and we want to marry you if you would accept our proposal’. You shouldn’t be wasting your time schooling,” she said.
“They nicknamed the fighter jet “Shaho” (hawk) and if they see one, they would ask us to hide under caves or trees. It frightens them,” she added.
