NIGERIA | Gunmen Attack School, Abduct Students
8.26.2020 NIGERIA | Gunmen Attack School, Abduct Students One person was killed and others were abducted following an attack on the Damba- Kasaya Community in Chikun Local Government Area, Kaduna State, on Aug. 24. One person was killed and others, including several secondary school students, were abducted following an attack on the Damba-Kasaya Community in Chikun Local Government Area (LGA), Kaduna State, on Aug. 24. According to local reports, suspected Fulani militia arrived at the community in large numbers on motorcycles at around 7:45 a.m. They invaded the Prince Academy secondary school, where they abducted a teacher identified by Nigerian media as Christiana Madugu and at least four final year students who were preparing for their Junior Secondary School examination. Schools in Kaduna state recently reopened to enable secondary school children to sit their final examinations. The kidnapped children have been named as Happy Odoji, 14, Miracle Danjuma, 13, her sister Favour Danjuma, 9, who was abducted from her home, and Ezra Bako, 15. The abductors later contacted the family of the Danjuma sisters using the teacher’s telephone to confirm they had their children, but made no further demands. The gunmen also broke into the Aminchi Baptist Church, which they set ablaze after destroying musical instruments and the public address system, before abducting other villagers. Witnesses informed local media that the military briefly engaged the assailants and then withdrew for reasons that remain unclear. Unaware of this, villagers continued to pursue the attackers, who opened fire on them, killing a man later identified as Benjamin Auta. -

And for the Easy Use and Cleaning of the Booths. the Floor of the Booths Will Be Reinforced Concrete
oval pit holes (only one of which is used at a time) and for the easy use and cleaning of the booths. The floor of the booths will be reinforced concrete. The superstructure will be brick masonry which is durable and presentable. The roof will comprise long aluminium sheets. The lids for the opening of the pits will be removable precast concrete plates with handles. In front of the doors, a brick wall will be constructed for blinding purposes. While the UBE design extends the roof to this blinding wall, only the booths will be roofed under the Project. The custom of removing solids from pit latrines does not appear to exist in general. It will, therefore, be necessary to obtain the understanding of people concerned in school on the need to maintain clean toilet facilities and to remove solids when the pits are full in view of the use of the newly constructed toilets for a long period of time. Even though the arrangement of the booths in a single row in one building is economical and easy to construct, separate buildings for boys and girls will be constructed under the Project when the number of booths exceeds eight. Considering the local customs, no urinals for boys will be installed.
