BREAKING: Troops Prevent Attack On Bishop Oyedepo’s Faith Academy In Kaduna

Nigerian troops have reportedly foiled an attack on Faith Academy secondary school in Kaduna State.

Bandits were said to have attempted to attack the school after kidnapping scores of students from nearby Bethel Baptist High School in the state.

The assailants attempted to attack the school at about 1 a.m. on Monday, but were repelled by soldiers, reports Daily Trust.  

Faith Academy is a network of secondary schools founded by Bishop David Oyedepo of the Living Faith Church, otherwise known as Winners’ Chapel.

Meanwhile, the Monday morning abduction at the Bethel school and attempted attack at Faith Academy came barely 24 hours after suspected bandits raided the staff quarters of the National Tuberculosis and Leprosy Centre, Zaria, and reportedly abducted some babies and nursing mothers.
