In an act of t3rrorism, suspected Boko Haram insurgents launched an atta3k on Faudiya School, situated in the Geidam Local Government Area of Yobe State.
This educational institution, affiliated with the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN), a prominent Shia sect in the country, was tragically transformed into a scene of unspeakable carnage.
According to credible sources who spoke to Daily Trust, the assailants descended upon the Hausari quarters in Geidam LGA at the unholy hour of 3:44 am on Friday.
Under the cover of darkness, the t3rrorists exploited the vulnerability of their victims, who were sleeping.
As reported by Daily Trust, sources revealed that the gunmen struck while the students were deep in sleep, rendering them defenceless against the sudden and deadly onslaught. This callous and calculated atta3k has left an indelible sc-r on the community, claiming the precious lives of the students. “The incident occurred at around 3:44 am when the gunmen invaded Faudiya School a well-known Shiite school in Geidam,” a source said. “They (gunmen) atta3ked the school when these youths were asleep and brought them outside and sh%t them d3ad.
“There is tension and concern in the town after this incident. People are t3rrified over this unfortunate incident,” he said.
