NIPSS condemns attack on students of Government Science School, Kuru

The Director-General of the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS) Kuru, Prof Ayo Omotayo has expressed shock over the attack on three final year students of Government Science School, Kuru by assailants.

Professor Omotayo in a statement signed by the Institute Head of Public Affairs, Dr Sola Adeyanju, min, said it was disheartening that this attack which occurred when the students stepped out of the school to buy something led to the untimely death of one of them while two others sustained gun-shot injuries and now receiving treatment in a hospital.

The Director-General noted that as a responsible organisation, the National Institute condemns the unwarranted and cowardly attack on the innocent secondary school students in the strongest term and therefore commiserated with the Management and staff of the school.

He is also commiserated with the parents of the attacked students, particularly the parents of the student that lost his life in the attack. The Director-General feels the pain of parenthood and prays that God gives the family the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.

The Director-General enjoined the security agencies to expand their dragnet to cover vulnerable secondary schools around Kuru while urging the school authorities to pay more attention to the movement of students in their care.
