In a heart-wrenching turn of events, a wave of violence has struck a secondary school in the Riyom Local Government Area of Plateau State, casting a dark shadow over the community and leaving the nation in mourning. Bandits, believed to be Fulani herders, launched a brazen attack on BECO Comprehensive Secondary School, claiming the lives of two educators and shattering the lives of their loved ones.
The victims of this senseless act were identified as a recently married couple, Mr. and Mrs. Rwang Danladi, both dedicated teachers at the school nestled within the Kwi community of the council area. The attack took place during a fateful Monday afternoon when the school was conducting a meeting to compile students’ results in preparation for the forthcoming “Speech and Prize Giving Day,” a significant event on the school’s calendar.
