UN Calls for Urgent Action After Terrorists Attack Nigerian Schools

The United Nations has voiced deep concern over a wave of terror attacks on schools in Nigeria. Spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric spoke out after coordinated strikes in Oyo State during which dozens of students and teachers were abducted. Armed groups targeted multiple campuses over the weekend. At least two teachers were reportedly killed and many children taken hostage, prompting fears for community security and the future of education in the region. UN Secretary-General António Guterres has also raised alarm over these attacks. The UN country team is now working with the Nigerian government to strengthen protection for schools and make learning environments safer for students.
