Grieving parents of the students kidnapped by ISWAP on Friday are reported to have booed the Katsina State Governor, Aminu Bello Masari.
The incident occurred yesterday when he visited the school on a fact finding mission.
Meanwhile grieving relatives and friends are counting their missing sons who have not been seen since the abduction.
There are also memories of former First Lady, Patience Jonathan weeping for the Chibok girls equally snatched from their school years back.

Meanwhile, President Muhammadu Buhari, who is home in Daura, a few kilometres from the school where the incident took place, has sent a federal government delegation to the school.
The delegation is led by Babagana Monguno, the National Security Adviser.
The president has directed security forces to ensure that all the abducted students are rescued safely.
The Cable reports Governor Bello Masari of Katsina State as saying that that as at the time of the visit of the Federal Government delegation, only 333 students wee actually missing from the school.
This is contrary to the initial repot of 600 out of the school population of 800 students.
According to the governor, “Based on available records, we are still searching for 333 students through either the forest or their parents to ascertain the actual number that have been kidnapped.
“We are still counting because more are coming out of the forest, and we are calling on those parents that have phone numbers to find out whether or not their children have gone back home.
“As a government, we are yet to be contacted by any group or person responsible for the kidnap of the students.”
