For fear of harm, Abia State governor, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu, has directed the immediate evacuation of all students from Abia State currently trapped at the University of Jos, Plateau State.
The move followed an alarm raised by the students of the University over the continuous attack and killings in the campus.
The Commissioner for Information, John Okiyi Kalu, disclosed in a statement that the team dispatched by the governor was led by Mr. Chibuzo Ndom, Special Assistant on Students Affairs to the governor.
The team also had security personnel who are to ensure the safe return of over 200 students in the university back to the state capital, Umuahia.
Governor Ikpeazu, himself would welcome the students back home.
