At least 20 students of Federal Polytechnic, Mubi, Adamawa State, were shot dead last night by unknown gunmen.
The men invaded the off-campus student hostel around 11 last night, rounded some students up, lined them up, asked a few questions and then separated the students into two groups.
One group was allowed to go and the other group, with about 20 students, were all shot dead - execution style.
Students in the hostel have started leaving for fear of another attack.
The school is yet to issue a statement about the murders.
