The statement said in part, “UNICEF is deeply concerned about this act of violence. Attacks on schools are a violation of children’s rights.“We stand with the families of the missing children and the community affected by this horrifying event.”

The director acknowledged the efforts of the Nigerian government in ensuring the safe return of all the missing children.Though some of the students had returned, the state government, however, said 333 students were still missing.
