Gunmen have abducted hundreds of girls from a boarding secondary school in the early hours of today in the town of Jangebe, Zamfara state.
A parent and a teacher who was at the Government Girls secondary school during the attack told the BBC that more than 300 students are believed to have been kidnapped.
This comes as the state Governor BELLO MATAWALLE received another set of repentant bandits.
He urged Nigerians to appreciate his administration’s peace and dialogue initiative in the quest to curb banditry and insecurity.Â
Governor BELLO MATAWALLE believes his reconciliation and dialogue initiative is for the benefit of the country and not Zamfara State alone.Â
Some of the weapons and ammunition surrendered by the repentant bandits include seven AK-47, two general-purpose machine guns, one rocket-propelled grenade launcher, several live ammunitions and anti-craft ammunitions.
