The post reads, “Innalillahi wa Inna ilaihi raji’un. I feel sad to inform you that our noble colleague; the principal of GSS KURIGA (SNR).

Amen,” a colleague wrote on Friday.
Another resident, who sought to be anonymous, described the death of the principle as disturbing.
There has been no official reaction yet from the state Police Command Public Relations Officer, ASP Mansir Hassan, on the issue.
Hassan could not be reached by phone, and had not responded to the text sent to him on the killing.
The ugly development came as Federal Government called against paying ransom to the kidnappers to release victims of kidnapping.
