There was panic at the main gate of Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, when several rounds of ammunition reportedly fell from a moving passenger bus along the Zaria–Katsina highway.
According to a video on X by Zagazola Makama, a
counter-terrorism publication, the incident occurred directly in front of the
university’s main gate on Tuesday, causing a brief commotion among pedestrians
and motorists.
The publication said an eyewitness, who identified himself
as Musa, said the ammunition dropped from a commercial vehicle heading towards
Katsina.
“We suddenly saw the bullets drop from the bus as it sped
past the gate. Before people could understand what happened, the vehicle had
already disappeared,” he said.
Musa added that some bystanders quickly picked up the
ammunition and immediately alerted security operatives stationed in the area.
Another student who preferred to remain anonymous, described
the incident as “strange and frightening,” noting that many feared the
ammunition could be linked to supplies meant for bandits operating in parts of
Kaduna and Katsina.
Makama said security personnel later arrived at the scene
and recovered the ammunition.
