WEDNESDAY- 1st September, 2021: Gunmen suspected to be bandits on Wednesday morning invaded a Secondary School in Maradun Local Government Area of Zamfara State and abducted unspecified number of students.

The abductors stormed the school premises with sophisticated weapons, CEOAFRICA gathered.

Details of the incident remain sketchy as at press time.

When contacted the State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Mohammed Shehu promised to inquire and revert.

However, according to reports, the gunmen invaded the school at about 11:30 am when the students were writing examinations.

Like other states in the country, particularly the north, Zamfara has witnessed a surge in insecurity recently as bandits continue to attack schools and kidnap students for ransom.
