October 12, 2021

Gunmen have attacked the Saint Albert the Great Institute of Philosophy, a Catholic church-owned seminary in Fayit community in Kagoma Chiefdom of Jama’a Local Government Area of Kaduna State.

Channels Television reports that the Spokesman of the Kaduna Police Command, Mohammed Jalige, who confirmed the incident, said the police tactical team is currently at the school to confirm the number of those kidnapped and how the incident happened.

They were said to have invaded the school on Monday night and started shooting sporadically, thereby, creating fear among the students and staff of the school.

It was gathered that the gunmen later took some unconfirmed number of students away to an unknown destination before the arrival of local vigilantes who were able to prevent them from taking more students.
