In a statement issued on Sunday by the Institution’s Acting Registrar, Malam Hassan Tanko, students were directed to return home, as the university was closed indefinitely for security reasons.
Students were left stranded, as they couldn’t find any form of transportation
One of the students identified as Ali said many commuters were now stranded in the commercial border town due to lack of vehicle.
“Motor park is now jam-packed with stranded passengers with no vehicle to move them out,” Ali said.
About 40 people, mostly students, were killed by unknown gunmen in the town earlier today. 22 of them were students.
Thousands have since fled their homes as suspected Boko Haram militants have reportedly closed in on the town.
