Boko Haram gunmen today Sunday September 29, stormed the dormitory of College of Agriculture Gujba, Yobe , firing on students as they slept. The Boko Haram terrorists went into the school and opened fire on students, while they were sleeping. However, sources say about 30 students were killed while many got injured.

Yobe has seen a series of brutal attacks targeting students in recent months, all blamed on Boko Haram.

The worst occurred in July in the town of Mamudo, where the Islamists threw explosives and sprayed gunfire into dormitories in the middle of the night, killing 41 students.

The military has described the spate of recent school attacks as a sign of desperation by the Islamists, claiming they only have the capacity to hit soft targets.
