Adamu Garba said he and other teachers estimate 40 students died in the assault that began around 2 a.m. Tuesday at the Federal Government College Buni Yadi.
Military spokesman Capt. Eli Lazarus said soldiers still are gathering corpses so he could not give an exact toll.
It is the latest in a string of attacks blamed on Boko Haram - the name means Western education is forbidden - that has caused regional officials to charge the military is losing its war to halt an Islamic uprising in Africa's biggest oil producer.
will that slow down the spam and scams from nigeria in emails???????We can only hope.And on the other hand its another case of Im sure its whiteys fault,you know there is no black on black crime in this world,only white on black crime,after all whitey is nothing but racist.SO once again its all whiteys fault,just dont read the atlanta journal about all the black on black killings that go on every day there.Man you give a black a gun and instantly they gotta go kill someone and then they blame whitey cause 200 years ago they was a slave.I bet there isnt a black one out there that can tell you their slave masters first middle and last name????But yet thats what they want their reparations for,you know they just walked off the plantation last week,so the white man owes them everything and anything they want.And while we are on the subject of reparations,I want reparations for all my ancestors that died in the war between the states,you know the war about states rights???My people died in that war and by god I want paid for them dying in that war.I want free food,free housing,free cell phones,free medical care,and a big fat welfare check every month so I can go buy some crack cocaine with it,and I want uncle tom to buy me some new furniture,and some new clothes,oh and a new bently every year.Ok maybe not a bently but it damn better well better be at least benz,with 22 inch conastoga rims.
