Residents of Biu Local Government Area of Borno have been thrown into confusion as at least four students confirmed dead 12 more battling for life after their visit to the Yankari Game reserve.
The students who were from the College of Education, Waka-Biu were said to have been struck by a strange and yet to be identified disease at the Yankari park. They complained about severe abdominal pain and vomited blood shortly before their death.
The survivors are currently hospitalised.
A report says one of the dead students, Adama Dika, is the daughter of the caretaker chairman of Biu Local Government Area, Usman Dika.
