Armed bandits have invaded the Federal Government Girls College, Birnin Yauri, Kebbi State and abducted no fewer than 30 female students and 3 teachers, Daily Trust reports.

The incident occurred in the early hours of Thursday.

Unconfirmed reports say that the assailants also shot a security guard at the school dead.

Riding on motorcycles, the attackers were said to have attacked the school from neighbouring Rijau forest.

The attack on the  Birnin Yauri school is the third time in as many weeks that bandits would attack a school in the country.

The previous two cases were recorded in Tegina, Rafi LGA of Niger State and Nuhu Bamali Polytechnic in Kaduna State.
