Mrs Rosemary Waku, the Director of Information, Protocol and Public Relations Units (IPPR), made the disclosure on Monday, where she saida unspecified number of students were taken away at gunpoint on Sunday night.

“An unconfirmed number of students of FUAM were abducted at gunpoint by unknown persons from the Campus on Sunday 25th April, 2021,” she said.
