Bandits invaded the Federal University of Gusau, Zamfara State, on Friday morning, and abducted an unspecified number of students from the hostels.
Three students’ hostels were ransacked by the attackers before they took away their victims.
Troops of the Nigerian Army engaged the attackers in a fierce gun battle, but they managed to escape with the victims.
In a video, a student of the institution narrated how the gunmen got access into the hostels.
The unidentified student was heard saying that the bandits broke into the hostels through the windows and ceiling.
He said, “They (the bandits) forced their way through the windows. They dragged them out through the window. Look here. And know which of the rooms is hers”
The windows’ rails, panes and locks were visibly damaged, while the ceiling was broken.
Many students were seen peeping into the affected rooms of their colleagues or relatives.
