One of the lucky survivors of the Boko Haram massacre on Tuesday, which claimed the lives of over 40 students in Federal Government College, Bunu Yadi in Yobe State, Ibrahim Musa Lampo, a 14-year-old JSS2 student who was shot but managed to survived, speaks of his escapade and how they were treated by the insurgents:
“I was shot on my left leg, while I was sleeping. When I woke up, I could not walk and was later taken to the girls hostel where the insurgents gathered us with the female students. They selected some of the female students and went away with them, while they left some of us groaning in pain from gun shot”.
The insurgents also burnt the hostels, classrooms and more during the attack.
Ibrahim who recounted his experience while groaning in pains was receiving treatment for gunshot injuries at the General Sani Abacha Specialist Hospital, Damaturu.
His mother, Hajiya Lampo, who was sitting beside him on the hospital bed lamented government's inability to protect the lives of the innocent students. She appealed to the Federal Government to “provide security for all unity schools in Nigeria, particularly in the north eastern region of the country by constructing a fence that will shield the students from intruders.”
Meanwhile, condemnations continue to trail the massacre of the innocent students.
