Fifty children escape after mass school abduction in Nigeria
Fifty children have managed to escape after a mass abduction at a school in Tegina, Nigeria. The incident took place on Sunday when a group of armed individuals stormed the school, initially kidnapping over 100 children. The group of attackers is suspected to be part of criminal gangs operating in the region.
According to local authorities, the children who escaped are currently receiving medical attention and support. The exact number of children still in captivity remains unknown, with fears for their safety growing as the situation develops. Efforts are underway to locate and rescue the remaining abducted children.
No group has claimed responsibility for the abduction yet, and the motives behind the attack are still unclear. The Nigerian government has been facing increasing pressure to address the pervasive issue of kidnapping for ransom in the country, particularly in the northern regions.
The incident has once again highlighted the security challenges faced by schools in Nigeria, with recurring attacks targeting educational institutions. The government is being urged to take immediate action to ensure the safety of students and prevent such incidents from occurring in the future.
