Gunmen have killed Auta Nasela, a teacher in Government Science Secondary School Nassarawa-Eggon, Nasarawa state.
According to NAN, an employee of the school, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the attack occurred Saturday night.
He said the gunmen gained entrance into the school premises and went straight to the residence of the deceased, demanding money.
The source added that the deceased ran to his neighbour’s apartment, but was chased and shot by one of the gunmen.
He said another staff member of the school, Timothy Malle, was also shot but survived the attack, adding that he was rushed to the hospital for medical attention.
Confirming the incident, Ramhan Nansel, police public relations officer (PPRO) in the state, said the incident was a case of armed robbery.
