NIGERIAN TEACHER KILLED OVER KORAN



I still find this news had to swallow. Some secondary school pupils in Gombe State killed their teacher after apparently accusing her of desecrating the Koran.

The teacher, a Christian, was attacked after supervising an exam in the school located in Gombe city.

Nigerian police say students beat the teacher to death outside the school compound after she had been invigilating an exam.

The students had apparently accused her of desecrating the Koran, though it is not clear exactly what she had done.

The police arrived at the scene to restore calm and say their intervention stopped a riot.

The authorities, concerned that communal unrest could break out, have ordered all the city's schools to shut.

What is the world turning into? I'm speechless
