Following the tragic murder of a 5-year-old kid, Hanifa Abubakar, by the proprietor of her school in Kano State, parents now storm schools before closing hours to pick their children.
The case of Hanifa’s murder is fast changing the narrative in the state as even kids who were allowed to go to school and return home by themselves are now guided by parents or chaperones and parents storm schools before closing hours to ensure safe return of their children.
Abdulmalik Tanko, the proprietor of Noble Kids Nursery and Primary School, Kwanar Dakata, in Nasarawa Local Government of Kano State, was arrested over the death of Hanifa.
Tanko abducted little Hanifa from one of his schools at Kawaji community in Yankaba area of Kano metropolis in December and brought her to another school he ran, North West, in Tudun Murtala, killed, butchered and buried her in the school premises.
News of the murder of Hanifa has since sparked national outrage with President Muhammnadu Buhari, the First Lady, A’isha Buhari and other prominent Nigerians calling for justice for little Hanifa.
