Suspected bandits stormed Bethel Baptist High School in Damishi, Kaduna and abducted several students.
The school, which is located at Chikun Local Government Area, was invaded by the Gunmen around 2am today.
Kaduna state chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Joseph Hayab confirmed the incident and he explained how his son narrowly escaped the abduction in the school.
Hayab said many of the students were missing, explaining that it is not possible to determine the number of those abducted until those who ran into hiding are back.
He, however, said many of the students are believed to have been abducted.
“We cannot give the exact figure of those abducted for now, until those who ran into hi for safety are back and a census of the students is taken, but we know they took a lot of students,” Hayab said.
“I am just speechless, I don’t know what to say. My son was among the students who narrowly escaped.
“I am part of this unfortunate incident because it is my church. This is a very, very sad situation for us.
“I was informed that bandits invaded the school around 2am.
“They have just started the NECO exam and see what we are going through.”
