More than 100 students abducted in northwest Nigeria

More than 100 Nigerian students have been abducted in the north-western town of Kuriga.
 
The pupils were in the assembly ground around 08:30 a.m. when dozens of gunmen on motorcycles rode through the school.
 
The students, between the ages of eight and 15, were taken away along with a teacher.
 
Kidnap gangs, known as bandits, have seized hundreds of people in recent years, especially in the north-west.
 
But there had been a reduction in the mass abduction of children over the last year until this week.
