Over 80 abducted in northern Nigeria; human remains found at gang camps

Armed gangs abducted more than 80 farmers and women in Niger and Zamfara states, with police discovering human remains at suspected camps. This continues a pattern of mass kidnappings for ransom in northwest Nigeria, but the scale and discovery of remains signal an escalation in violence. The incident underscores the deteriorating security situation and the state's limited control over rural areas.
