Gunmen attack Abuja school, hijack school bus

Unknown gunmen around 8 this morning attacked a primary school, Vine International Academy school, in Nyanya, the scene of recent bomb attacks and made away with the school bus.
According to eye witnesses, the men trailed the bus to the school and immediately the driver dropped the pupils inside the school, the men struck, stealing the vehicle. Thankfully no teacher or student was hurt in the incident.

A staff of the school later said the operation looked more like armed robbery than an attack from terrorists. Immediately the incident spread, many parents trooped to the school out of panic and took their children home.

  28. Thank God they didnt take anyone with. Everybody wants to be heard, both armed robbers...; difficult to knw who's who.
    The school i think, is private; they should track their bus and up their security. If my child attends that school, I'll make sure there's enough security in that school before my child can go back there; one can never be too sure what's happening nowadays.
    Everyone have to be alert now; do anything you possibly can to make yourself and loved ones safe and leave the rest to God..

  110. Following the assault on Iyedoh Daniel aka Showstarr, Vj at Raptunes Africa tv show on the 25th of February 2014 by GTB. Ojodu berger chief security officer and attached mobile police men, Showstarr has decided to seek justice at the Federal High court Lagos for the inhuman treatment meted out on him by Gtbank's Cso and Mopol men who manhandled him because he was assumed to be a yahoo yahoo boy by the banks CSO who smartly stole his Blackberry while he was filling payment teller and further asking insinuating questions,calling showstarr a yahoo yahoo boy, and further arranging to beat Showstarr up with the attached Mopol men because CSO claims to be "Street".
    The hearing at the Federal High Court starts on the 13th of May 2014.
    This is a one in a million cases experienced by good looking and hardworking Nigerian citizens and enterpreneurs on a daily basis because of the decay in our country Nigeria...... The question is when will all this injustice and violence end?
    Is it the role of a Bank CSO to steal phones and then play EFCC, or is it the Role of attached Mopol men to molest innocent Bank customers?
    This is the time for change!! #LetsStopTheUppressionInNigeria

    Kindly post this on your blog so people will be aware of new tricks played by bank CSO's and Mopol men in a bid to exploit Nigerians. They steal your phone to get your attention, ask insinuating questions,search for contacts and further invade your email etc.
