Authorities of the Kaduna State College of Education, Gidan Waya, have announced immediate suspension of academic activities following persistent attacks on villages bordering the institution by unknown gunmen.
A statement issued on Tuesday by the public relations officer of the college, Danlami Aduwu, said the suspension of academic activities was informed by the need to safeguard the lives and properties of staff and students.
The statement directed staff and students to vacate the campus.
It urged all staff to report to the temporary site of the institution at Kafanchan.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that staff and students of the college have since deserted the Gidan Waya campus for fear of losing their lives.
Villages surrounding the institution such as Godogodo, Pasakori, Mile One and Tudun Wada, have been serially attacked by unknown gunmen.
