Nigerian authorities seek families of inmates from purported school after raid 0 SHARES Share it! Some had paid tuition fees to the men running the house believing it to be an Islamic school, while others viewed it as a correctional facility with no expectation of instruction. Kaduna state police spokesman Yakubu Sabo said the “dehumanized treatment” they discovered made it impossible to consider the house an Islamic school. The reason for the discrepancy in numbers was not immediately clear, but authorities said some of those freed had immediately fled. “We are glad that Muslim authorities have dismissed the notion of the embarrassing and horrifying spectacle as (being an) Islamic School,” said a statement issued by President Muhammadu Buhari’s office.
