Gunmen staged an attack on a school in Northeast Nigeria while students were writing exams. Authorities say at least 37 students remain in captivity, and police note that over 30 people have disappeared. Officials refuse to name the armed group responsible for the attack.
In a separate event, 269 Nigerians returned home from South Africa ahead of a protest deadline. At the same time, an IMF official highlighted that hidden government spending in Nigeria amounts to about 2% of GDP. These developments show that Nigeria faces serious challenges with security and money management.
