Attack On Secondary School Was A Rumour - Sahara Reporters

             

The news I uploaded late last night about Sahara reporters' claim that secondary school students were under attack in Kano has been confirmed to be a rumour. The same source I quoted (Sahara Reporters) said this morning that the news was a rumour, and that officials have confirmed it. Below are texts of the news as reported by Sahara Reporters:

"Several officials have denied earlier reports that gunmen attacked a national unity high school-Federal Government College- in Kano late night.
SaharaReporters called several officials of the National Emergency Management Agency  in Abuja- all of them said there  was no record of an attack on the boarding school or its neighborhood in Kano.
Also, the Commandant of the Airforce base in the troubled city told our reporters that he heard the rumor via text message, but he stated that his checks on the area did not produce any information about an attack.
The police spokesperson in Kano did not return calls."



 I thank those of my concerned readers who read and shared this for their concern. As always, I am still committed to bringing you credible news as they break as always. Thank you.
