President Bola Tinubu canceled a scheduled trip to the G20 summit and pledged to recruit 30,000 new security officers as Nigeria faces a wave of mass kidnappings targeting students and churchgoers, including the abduction of 303 students and 12 staff from St. Mary Catholic Boarding School in Papiri village. Nigerian authorities closed all schools in Bauchi state and 47 federal colleges, citing security threats after these incidents, though some officials have raised concerns about the impact on education. The kidnappings, drawing warnings from Donald Trump about religious violence and international attention, have prompted protests from parents demanding government action and reignited memories of the 2014 Chibok abduction.
