The Kano State Government has ordered the immediate closure of Noble Kids Academy, a private school in Kwanar Dakata, Nassarawa Local Government Area, where the suspects buried the body of an abducted girl, Hanifa Abubakar.
According to the authorities, the deceased, a five-year-old child, was abducted in November 2021 in Kwanar Dakata in the capital by her teacher, Abdulmalik, who is the main suspect in the case.
Following the discovery of the victim’s body buried in the private school, the State Commissioner for Education, Muhammad Kiru, issued a statement announcing the school’s closure.

He urged parents whose children attend the private school to stop doing so until the probe was completed.
In a statement released on Thursday, the State Police Command announced the arrest of the girl’s kidnappers, who wanted N6 million in ransom before killing her.
