At Least 59 Students Shot To Death & Burned Alive In Nigeria's Yobe State By Islamic Militant Group, Boko Haram.
Tuesday.
"Some of the students' bodies were burned to ashes," Police Commissioner Sanusi Rufai said of the attack on the Federal Government college of Buni Yadi, a secondary school in Yobe state, near the state's capital city of Damaturu.
"Fresh bodies have been brought in. More bodies were discovered in
the bush after the students who had escaped with bullet wounds died
from their injuries," he said.
Rafai, who had given an earlier estimate of 29 killed, said all those killed were boys. He said the school's 24 buildings, including staff quarters, were completely burned to the ground.

President Goodluck Jonathan called the attack "callous and senseless murder ... by deranged terrorists and fanatics who have clearly lost all human morality and descended to bestiality".
