At least 30 students were hospitalised on Monday due to a strange disease at the Government Girls College (GGC), Sokoto.

Abdurrahman Dantsoho, the Director of Public Health in the state, made the disclosure on Thursday.

Danstoho told newsmen that the infected students were “treated” at the Specialist Hospital and discharged.

The official confirmed that the ministry had commenced testing of water, food and other samples collected.
