Africa | Nigeria February 26, 2021

Raiders have struck again in Zamfara State in Nigeria’s north-west, this time abducting at least 300 girls from a boarding school in the early hours of February 26, 2021. That was reported by some media.

The raiders, referred to as bandits by authorities there, reportedly consisted of a group of gunmen on motorcycles. They are said to have stormed the school, opened fire indiscriminately, before vanishing into the night with the girls.

A similar attack took place in the area about a fortnight ago. _________________________ © 2015 - 2021 Africauptodate. All Rights Reserved
