Armed bandits in large numbers, wielding sophisticated weapons, stormed Comprehensive Secondary School in Maga under Danko/Wasagu Local Government Area of Kebbi State on Sunday night, abducting no fewer than 25 schoolgirls.
Our source, Sulaiman Abdulllahi, said that the bandits killed the school’s vice principal while several unidentified bodies were seen in the school premises.
“They came in mass numbers at night, began shooting sporadically before they got access to the school,” the source said.
He added that air force jets were seen loitering over the sky on Monday by 8 am after the attack and the area was cordoned off by heavily armed security personnel.
CSP Nafiu Abubakar, Kebbi Police Command image maker, who confirmed the attack, said that tactical team has been raised to begin rescue operations of the abducted students.
He added that efforts are being intensified to ensure no student in captivity gets hurt by the bandits, adding that the Commissioner of Police, Bello Sani, is poised to bring an end to the menace.
