Gunmen Attack Nigerian Girl's School
Yesterday, gunmen entered the campus of the Government Girl's Secondary School, Yana in Bauchi. It is reported that gunmen entered the staff housing around 2:30 on Sunday morning. The attackers set fire to staff house buildings, stole the principal's car, and killed a 5 year old girl in a fire set to open the bank vault. These attacks came just a week after 129 girls were abducted from the Government Girl's Secondary School, Chibok. It is unknown currently who is behind these attacks and if they are related.
