Gunmen suspected to be bandits invaded an Islamic school at Sakkai community in Faskari Local Government Area of Katsina State, abducting eight pupils.
The gunmen also abducted a teacher of the Islamic school and whisked them away deep inside a forest in the area.
The victims were abducted Tuesday evening while conducting an evening lesson at the school premises. Like several councils in the state located close to an expanse of forest reserve, Faskari has been a notorious spot for bandits and animal rustlers.
