*NAPPS CONDEMNS GRUESOME KILLING OF A 5-YEAR-OLD HANIFA ABUBAKAR*
The National Executive Council of the National Association of Proprietors of Private Schools( NAPPS ) is deeply saddened to hear the news of the gruesome killing of a 5-year-old girl Hanifa Abubakar allegedly perpetrated by her school teacher in a private school located at Tundunwada area of Kano State. We condemn this act in its entirety.
To us, the news of incessant abductions and killings of school children has become worrisome. We, therefore, urge both the states and Federal Government to put machinery in place to ensure the safety of school children in the country.
In the same manner, we implore the security operatives to carry out a proper investigation of this killing with a view to arresting other perpetrators connected to this dastardly act who may be at large.
We encourage school owners to keep tabs on their employees, activities within their schools and run appropriate background checks on any new members of staff.
We pray that the Almighty God will give the parents and other family members of this young girl the fortitude to bear this painful loss and comfort them at this critical period while urging speedy dispensation of justice regarding the killers of this young girl. We demand justice for Halifa!
Signed.
Chief Yomi Otubela Fcma
