Soldiers Escort Rescued Kaduna Students To Pick Belongings From School

• Despite the effort of the troops to thwart the attack, authorities in the state confirmed that 39 students of the institution were still missing

Security operatives have escorted students of the Federal College of Forestry Mechanisation in Kaduna State to pick their belongings and vacate the premises.

The students arrived at the school on Saturday morning on military trucks while some parents were on the ground to receive their children and take them home.

Shortly after their arrival, a mild drama played out as three female students fainted on sighting the school.

The students collapsed to the ground as they were said to be suffering from the psychological trauma they went through when bandits attacked their school.

They were, however, rescued by their colleagues who moved them to a well-ventilated place where they later regained their consciousness.

The students brought back by the soldiers were those whose abduction was foiled by the military in the Afaka area of Kaduna State.

The Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs in the state, Samuel Aruwan, said 23 female and 16 male students were still missing.

He added that efforts were being sustained by the security agencies to track the missing students.
