Mass killing of school children at the Federal
Government College in the Buni Yadi area of
Yobe was shrouded in mystery after reports
revealed that only male students were killed. It has been learnt, however that the extremists
intentionally spared the female students. According to the officials, female students at the co-
ed school were spared - and that the attackers
instead told them to go home and get married and to
abandon their Western education (Boko Haram -
meaning "against Western education"). It would be recalled that the attackers set a locked
dormitory on fire in the early hours of Tuesday. The terrified students escaped through the windows,
they were shot and their throats were slit. Some
were burned to ashes. The massacre was followed by violent reactions by
Nigerians and top politicians, urging the authorities
to put an end to bloodshed in the country.
