Bandits have reportedly attacked a government primary school at Kuriga community of Chikun Local Government Area of Kaduna State, abducting scores of children.
While a pupil was shot dead, many others were said to have been kidnapped. Residents said the school head teacher and some other staff are among the victims.
The incident reportedly happened at 8:20am immediately after the assembly on Thursday.
Recall that the junior and secondary school relocated to the school building inside the Kuriga town a few years ago due to insecurity concerns, abandoning their former school building located outside the town.
