At least nine female UNIZIK students reportedly raped by armed robbers in Anambra State.

The students of Nnamdi Azikiwe University (UNIZIK / NAU) living in the Ifite axis of Awka, Anambra, are crying aloud over the incessant robbery attacks in various lodges in the area since the beginning of the year.

It is reported that the latest incident happened in the early hours of Friday in which nine female students were raped by the armed robbers who invaded their hostel. The robbers who were estimated to be about 20 had stormed Ifite road, Awka, where the hostels were located and started shooting indiscriminately and robbung from room to room.

A student of the university, who spoke with news reporters, said that the robbers were heavily armed with guns, axes and matchetes. “We were at the hostel when we had gunshots that lasted for about ten minutes and we ran for our lives because they had not gotten to our own hostel; we hid at the back of some shops in the area.
