A senior secondary school form one
(SS1) student of Federal Government Girls College (FGGC), Jalingo, was
on Monday apprehended for being in possession of two grenades.
The student, simply identified as Blessing, was apprehended by the
school’s security guards who were conducting checks on the students
luggage following their resumption for the second term.
In an attempt to smuggle the bombs into the school, Blessing, who joined
the school last September, concealed the bombs inside gari and it took
the vigilance of the security men to detect them.
Upon the discovery, she was quickly arrested alongside her father who is
said to be a retired Police Inspector from Numan in Adamawa state while
the bomb disposal unit at the police headquarters was quickly called in
to defuse the bombs.
Confirming the incident, the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), ASP
Joseph Kwaji, said both the girl and her father are under detention
while investigation is being conducted into the matter..
