                    [Summary] => 


The Philippine government has rejected appeals to directly negotiate with Nigerian gunmen holding hostages eight of its nationals and three South Koreans.


Brushing off calls by relatives of some of the hostages for direct talks, Foreign Undersecretary Esteban Conejos said they would rely on the Nigerian government to bring an end to the crisis.


A day earlier, one of the Filipino hostages appealed for help in a recorded radio message, saying they were being beaten and starved by their captors in a Nigerian jungle.

                    [Summary] => 

In an emotional message aired yesterday, a Filipino kidnapped with 10 other foreigners in Nigeria said they were being held in the jungle, beaten up and starved. 


"We want to see our families... I don’t want to die here," the unidentified hostage said in a recorded telephone appeal for help. 


Eight Filipino laborers and three South Korean executives were seized Thursday by armed men in Nigeria’s oil-rich south after a shootout at a power plant construction site. 


Contact has been made with the gunmen but with little result so far.
