“As soon they entered the school they began to shoot indiscriminately and kidnapped over 100 students and dozens of teachers on the spot.

“As I am talking to you now, we can not ascertain how many students both male and female and their teachers were kidnapped during the attack but we saw over 100 students including some of their teachers were chased by the Bandits to an unknown destination,” he said.

As at the time of filing the report, the Police and the state government could not confirm the incident.

Findings gathered that while this was happening a prayer session on the current insecurity challenges facing the state is being held at the Emir of Gusau’s palace with the governor, Bello Matawalle in attendance.
