While celebrating this success, HURMA calls on the Federal Government to do more in fulfilling its primary constitutional responsibility of safeguarding the lives and welfare of all Nigerians, as enshrined in Section 14(2)(b) of the 1999 Constitution.

‘Kidnapping and insecurity remain major threats to human rights and national development. We urge government to:

1. Strengthen intelligence gathering and community policing across all states
2. Prosecute sponsors and perpetrators of kidnapping to serve as deterrence
3. Support victims with psychosocial care and reintegration support

“HURMA remains committed to monitoring, documenting, and collaborating with government and security agencies to ensure that every Nigerian enjoys their right to life, security, and dignity.
