Following the worsening insecurity in the nation and the incessant abduction of school students by bandits, a troop of soldiers were filmed accompanying children to school in North-Eastern Nigeria.

School children have become targets of bandits, with many kids still in the custody of kidnappers after they were taken from their schools.

With the increase in abduction of students, some states ordered for secondary schools to be shut down momentarily.

To protect students, Nigeria’s military has built posts close to some schools, yet, some schools still remain unguarded.

A recent video from the region shows soldiers accompanying kids to school to ensure they get there safely.
