It was gathered that Senior Secondary School students of the school were about to write their National Examination Council (NECO) paper when the gunmen stormed the premises and ordered the NECO supervisor to surrender the examination papers.
Gun-wielding bandits on Friday attacked Government Secondary School, Unguwar Sarki, in Kaduna State and took away packaged question papers which were mistaken for a bag of money.
“They snatched the wrapped examination papers and answer sheets and left,” Abdullah Mohammed, one of the students said. “Thinking it was money, they demanded she hands over the bulk of the wrapped papers to them and threatened to shoot her. “However, on getting to the school, we were told it was armed robbers that came to take away the wrapped examination papers thinking it was money.
