Following the threat of bandits to attack Federal Government College, Kwali, Abuja, the Ministry of Education ordered the closure of all schools in the nation’s capital.

The directive came at a time when students were writing their third term examination.

In order to comply, school authorities made students rush their ongoing examination.

A student of Kubwa Model Junior Secondary School, Abuja, lamented how their teachers made them write 13 subjects on Tuesday.

“We went to the school with preparation to write only one or two papers, but we ended up writing 13 subjects in a single day,” he said.

The student said some of them were traumatised as they were scared of possible terrorists attack.

A boarding student in Dutse-Makaranta, Abuja, who was taken back home by her parents on Tuesday, said they spent part of the previous night to write two subjects.

“The school management summoned us back to classrooms around 9pm on Monday, and made us to write two subjects,” she lamented.

She added they later on Tuesday, they sat for more papers just as their parents were waiting for them within the school’s premises.

One of the school teachers who spoke to Daily Trust, disclosed that because of the rush, students were made to answer questions in section “A” of the exam paper, which has objectives, while they were not allowed to attempt any question in section “B”, the essay part.

Residents of Abuja have been living in fear following rising kidnap cases and the ambush of soldiers last weekend.

Daily Trust had reported how a captain and two soldiers were killed by terrorists in the Bwari area of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), on Sunday night

The deceased officers, who were attached to the Presidential Guards Brigade, were reportedly ambushed after they visited the Nigeria Law School in Bwari following a distressed call from the authorities of the school.

The school management was said to have alerted that terrorists had dropped a letter indicating an imminent attack.

Spokesman of the Guards Brigade, Captain Godfrey Anebi Abakpa, confirmed the attack to Daily Trust, but said troops were already combing the area in order to ensure that terrorists were not hibernating there.

It's the Nigeria the North voted for

Na wa oo.

Rubbish

That's a wrong approach to examine the students academically

Hmm

I am OBI-DIENT

Despite all this mess, many are still ready to vote this govt. Again.

Buhari will take care of security. Osibanjo will take care of the economy. Bandits are now in the FCT and $ is now 700. President Buhari is the worst head of state and President Nigeria will ever have.

You guys should just take us back to were you met us when $1 was 216 and petrol was 87 naira. Bag of rice was 10k max (Foreign) .and BH was just NE.

Vote wisely. 2023.

Some students will be writing carryover for another 4 years

Ok

In 2015....tinubu ,told us that buhari is the next thing afte sliced bread.....buhari failed woefully..as if that is not enough,they re bundle him in 2019..nigeria is almost gone..

But my shocker is that some folks,because of tribal and religious sentiment still want this epic failure of apc to continue in the person of tinubu...
I still cant understand it.
It needs to be another wonder of the world.

This doesn't make any sense. Even the teachers and the principals cannot write 13 exams in one day. How many hours per exam?

They need to find a way to rewrite it.

The zoo is gone and dead
