The Minister of State for Defence Bello Mohammed Matawalle, has strongly condemned the night attack by bandits on Government Girls Comprehensive Senior Secondary School (GGCSS), Maga, in the Zuru Emirate of Danko/Wasagu Local Government Area, Kebbi State.
The attack resulted in the death of the school’s Vice Principal, Malam Hassan Yakubu, and the abduction of students.
Minister Matawalle described the incident as unacceptable and called on all security agencies to act urgently and in concert to locate and secure the safe release of the abducted students.
“The government, led by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has directed that the state’s security apparatus swing into immediate action to ensure the abducted students are released unharmed.
“Residents should remain calm and go about their business while government and security agencies address the situation.
“I pray to Allah to grant him mercy, a peaceful resting place, and to console his family and loved ones over this painful and unjust loss,” the Minister added.
