Musa Affos (Rhapsodi), Jalingo


The management of Red Star academy has suffered a loss as hoodlums have on Sunday invaded the school in ATC area of Jalingo, Taraba state capital.


RAB gathered that the hoodlums who came in their numbers ransacked the school, destroying documents, windows, doors, chairs, doors, and even school buses.


This happened in less than 24 hours after the Taraba state government imposed a 32-hour curfew in the metropolis to be able to maintain law and order but most residents of the metropolis particularly youths have defiled the order and going about their normal activities.




Red Star Academy according to our findings belongs to popular Taraba businessman, Uche Obi. We however gathered that hoodlums also used the opportunity to ravage other private and government properties in the metropolis.

Reacting to the incident, one of the staff of the school, Mr. Bitrus Ivo lamented that the hoodlums have succeeded in rendering them jobless. Other residents of the city condemned the act and tagged it as stealing and not looking for palliative, they also called on security men to take cover and ensure law and order is restored.


As at the time of filing this report, efforts to reach the owner of the schóol proved abortive as all his lines were unreachable when tried by our reporter.
