Taraba students
EKO HOT BLOG reports that a group of former students have reportedly stabbed a secondary school teacher to death in Taraba State.
This online media platform gathered that the incident happened at the Model Secondary School situated in Jalingo, the capital city of Taraba state.
It was gathered that the deceased, Bassey Sardauna, was attacked by the said former students while boarding a tricycle home outside the school premises.
Narrating the incident to journalists, the vice principal academics of the school, Tsokwa Sani, said the disturbing event that led to the death of the teacher started from an inter-house inspection which was disrupted by an ex-student of the school who came around to sign a form.
Sani said: “Trouble started when a former student accompanied his colleague to school to sign a Nigeria Air Force form,” he said.
”Usually, on Thursdays, we hold inter-house inspections and in the process, the said former students stormed the school and tried interrupting, so one of them withdrew and stepped back and asked the other to withdraw and apologise since they are in the school for a purpose.
”The former student declined, saying he cannot withdraw and cannot apologise.
”In the process, the teacher flogged the former students, asking that they should leave the school premises which led to an upheaval that the students reacted by shouting at the former students and they subsequently left the school premises.
”We usually close by 1:40 pm, so, at about 1:20 pm I was reliably informed that the former students regrouped with some louts and were hiding waiting for the teacher to step out.
”On getting such information, we asked that he should not step out on foot but rather be taken out in a colleague’s vehicle, a decision he declined, saying the former students cannot stand him in a battle,” the Vice Principal told Channels Television in a telephone conversation.
“In that regard, some of his colleagues numbering three decided to accompany him to the roadside where he boarded a tricycle, and in the process of the tricycle taking off the former students alongside the touts attacked him and stabbed him in the leg.
”He was taken to the Federal Medical Centre Jalingo for medical attention after losing so much blood and gave up in the process,” he added.
The remains of the deceased had been deposited at the morgue of the Federal Medical Centre Jalingo.
Reacting, the Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Abdullahi Usman, said a discrete investigation had been launched into the incident as directed by the Commissioner of Police and the culprits would be arrested and charged to court according to law.
