Security sources have confirmed that Boko Haram and ISWAP terrorists attacked and set ablaze primary and secondary schools in Chibok, Borno State.
The assault has reignited painful memories of the 2014 abduction of schoolgirls in the same town, underscoring the persistent threat posed by insurgents in the region. Witnesses reported that the attackers stormed the area, torching classrooms and leaving widespread destruction.
Authorities say investigations are underway, and emergency response teams have been deployed to assess the damage and provide relief to affected communities. The incident highlights the continuing vulnerability of educational institutions in conflict‑prone areas despite ongoing military operations.
