Police have denied reports of an attack at Government Girls College in Maiduguri, confirming that a security scare on Monday evening was a false alarm.
‘FALSE ALARM ON ALLEGED ATTACK ON GOVERNMENT GIRLS COLLEGE MAIDUGURI. PLEASE DISREGARD MISINFORMATION,’ stated ASP Nahum Kenneth Daso, Police Public Relations Officer for Borno State Command.
The alert prompted immediate security deployment to the school. Authorities have since restored order.
A government delegation, including the Commissioner of Education, the Chief Adviser on Sustainable Development, and the Special Adviser on Media, was sent to the school to oversee the situation.
The public is advised to disregard false information circulating about the incident.
Officials confirm the situation is under control and no attack occurred.
