In recent years, Kaduna State has faced security challenges, including incidents of violence affecting schools. This case underscores the urgent need for enhanced security measures in educational institutions to safeguard students.
For instance, on March 7, 2024, over 200 students, some as young as seven, were abducted from a primary and secondary school in Kuriga, Chikun Local Government Area. The students were later rescued by the military.
Also on March 11, 2021, armed assailants attacked the Federal College of Forestry Mechanisation in Afaka, kidnapping 39 students. After several weeks in captivity, they were eventually released.
