Insecurity: Ministry shuts Abuja FG colleges, evacuates students

The Federal Ministry of Education, for fear of impending bandits and terrorists’ attacks, has directed the immediate closure of all Federal Government Colleges domiciled in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, while ordering immediate evacuation of students.gathered that the decision was as a result of rising insecurity and threat to the lives, properties and well-being of the students therein.

An unconfirmed report had trended on social media on Sunday, indicating that there were heavy shootings at Federal Government College in Kwali, Abuja, a report which prompted parents to rush down to the school to ascertain the safety of their wards and possibly return home with them until calm was restored.

Members of staff also told our correspondent, in confidence, that the school would be shut down today not minding the Wednesday deadline as parents had been asked to come pick up their children before noon on Monday.

Through Ransom payment and weak military actions, these guys have taken out schools in federal capital. In the last few months, the authorities seems to be cooperating with mere hot air. Ask the C in C.

I thought Lia Mohammed said Nigeria is safe

Abuja the federal capital being threatened all the time by terrorist. If the Nigerian army can't do anything to stop that, then where is our hope? Nigeria as a whole is in deep mess, we are completely finished!

Very soon they may also shut down other govt institutions in Abuja. The President's aids still tell us they in charge?

It is better than to be sorry o, the pain of having anyone, most especially pupils, in the hands of those bastards is killing in itself. Let them go home until we can guarantee their safety.

Aren't schools on vacation?

Security-wise, they have failed abysmally 😞 Go get your PVC and vote out apc Abuja-Kaduna Obidatti023

The monster Buhari and cohorts created by playing the religious and tribal card

Shame of all time !!!
