Senator Mohammed Ali Ndume (Borno South) yesterday confirmed that no fewer than 42 students, including children, were abducted when armed members of Boko Haram/ISWAP terrorists invaded Primary and Junior Government Day Secondary School (GDSS) Mussa, in Askira -Uba Local Government Area of the state last Friday.
This is as he appealed to the security agencies, especially the troops of the Joint Task Force North East ‘Operation HADIN KAI’, to intensify efforts in rescuing the victims.

He said the traumatising incident which have forced many parents and guardians into hopelessness is barbaric and disheartening.
Ndume, whose constituency has remained under constant attacks and destruction in recent times, especially with Thursday’s attacks on some Chibok communities of Bambatsu and Ngadarma, where several people, including the elderly, were killed, explained that the Mussa Schools abduction is more terrifying because the incident happened at a time when poor and resilient students were engaged in their early morning class lessons.
