Gunmen stormed the Federal Radio Cooperation of
Nigeria, FRCN, Training School, Lagos State on
Friday, raped and robbed many of the female
trainee journalists, according to Vanguard.
The latest attack by the gunmen was said to
have been the third time, according to an eye
witness in the school.
According to an insider narrating the latest
attack said: “The armed robbers were many.
They attacked the school last week, last two
weeks and now this week. They always rape
the girls and dispossess others, including
male students and workers on night duties of
their valuables.
”The three attacks on the school have left
many of the workers shocked, especially as
policemen were supposed to be manning the
school gate.The last attack occurred at about
2am, with the gunmen targeting the financial
records offices.
Three of the gunmen wore masks and
focused on the new BOND FM station, which
has a lot of new expensive transmitting
devices.“Many of them broke into our offices,
remove burglar-proofs, raped girls who were
in training and living in our hostel.
They collected money, phones and laptops.
This is the third time this will be happening,”
said a staff.According to another insider, the
school has male and female trainees drawn
from across different radio stations in the
country who are on special courses. There
are also private students studying broadcast
journalism. The insider added:“The gunmen are usually
many whenever they attack. The first time
they came, they appeared to be searching for
something as they ransacked all offices.This
time, they came with three or four men
wearing masks. They were apparently the
people who wanted something from the
school or offices.
When they came this time, they were the
ones doing the frantic searching.Whether
they succeeded in getting what they wanted
this time around is what we don’t know.”
Meanwhile the state Police Public Relations
Officer, Ngozi Braide, however said only a
case of burglary was reported.“I just got to
hear today that the place has been burgled
three times.
But they had never reported. It’s only today
that an official complaint was lodged. No
case of rape was reported. Nobody has come
forward to say that she was raped,” she said.

Our security operatives are no longer effective.
Is it that there's no emergency number to call or we don't do so when all these are happening?
This country is becoming uncomfortable to live in. Smh
