Toro described his experience in the thick jungle of Plateau State as horrifying and unpalatable.

“Our journey from Abuja was smooth until we got to within Forest of Kibo/Ryom area of Plateau State where these boys blocked our vehicle along with two other cars, ordered us out of the cars and marched us into the forest.“Our driver who is a young man managed to escape the moment he noticed they were distracted. But we could not because our old legs may not carry us far if we tried to run,” Toro told journalists after his release.

It was deep and flowing but we managed to survive that by the grace of Allah. It was a close shave with death and it was an experience I don’t wish my enemies to go through. It was a very horrible experience and thank God we are alive to tell our story.“Our abductors who despite calling us Baba were hard on us and threatened to kill us if our relations failed to pay N150million as ransom. They asked for our contact persons and we three gave the same name to negotiate our freedom.
