Mohammed Shehu, Police Public Relations Officer confirmed that the attack was carried out on the school at about 11:22am by a large number of bandits.<\/p>\n

Atiku on Twitter said it is now time to have a School Protection Standby Unit deployed exclusively to protect schools in areas prone to attacks<\/p>\n

\u201dI am saddened by reports of yet another abduction of students in Zamfara. For a region that\u2019s playing catch-up in the critical area of education, this continued assault on the bedrock of our development is not acceptable.<\/p>\n

\u201dPerhaps the time has come to have a School Protection Standby Unit deployed exclusively to protect schools in areas prone to these attacks. If we don\u2019t take preemptive actions, I fear that education in the already disadvantaged regions may suffer irreversible losses.<\/p>\n

\u201dMeanwhile, I hope that no effort will be spared for a speedy recovery of the students.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
