The Nigerian Army on Monday foiled an attempted attack on Faith Academy, owned by the Living Faith Church, founded by Bishop David Oyedepo in Chikun local government area of Kaduna State.
The incident happened in the early hours of Monday shortly after bandits attacked Bethel Secondary School, Maramara Chickun Local Government Area of the state, where an unspecified number of students were kidnapped.
However, Faith Academy had last week, prior to the attack, ordered students to go home, leaving only the SS3 students who were preparing for final year exams.
Reason why other students were asked to go home is unknown.
Kaduna has witnessed several attacks and abductions in the last few days following the activities of bandits who have continued to wreak havoc in the state.
