Of course, there is but we can’t say it has gone out of hand. You asked if there’s any problem with the schools. Malam had plans to expand many of the educational institutions he had established before his life was cut short. Since after his killing, we’ve been managing the schools he established for our survival, as it caters to our daily needs and that of our mums as well. They also shot at some of his students though they survived the attack. Malam, his wife and a son were instantly killed. His wife Umma Abdulbari, one of his students named Bello and few of his sons, including Abdulbari, Abdulhalim, Faruk and Abdulhakam were all in the car when gunmen opened fire on them.
