Wakil added that when the deceased tried to retrieve the bag, the criminals stabbed him on the side of his chest. He later died while on admission at the ATBU Teaching Hospital.

The incident understandably led to a protest by students at the Yelwa Campus, who were distressed by the lack of security in and around the campus.

The school management, in a statement by Deputy Registrar (Academic), Fatima Abdullahi, shut down the institution and directed students to immediately vacate the campus.

The police have confirmed that they are actively investigating the case and are committed to bringing the perpetrators to justice.
