Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the ADC, condemned the abduction of a school principal, NECO official, and students during an exam.He accused the Nigerian government of abandoning its duty to protect education and citizens.

The attack, part of a national trend targeting schools, reflects systemic neglect of education through rising fees, underfunded schools, and poor security.Atiku linked the crisis to government policies that prioritize politics over public welfare, citing budget mismanagement and lack of accountability.He warned that failing to secure schools enables criminal groups to exploit the vacuum, endangering the future of Nigeria's youth.

The incident underscores a broader failure in governance, where children's safety is compromised by political inaction and resource misallocation.Atiku demanded urgent security reforms and accountability for officials responsible for protecting educational institutions.
