The search for the murder which claimed the lives of 46 students in federal polytechnic Mubi Adamawa state, began yesterday, Wednesday the 3rd of October 2012. The search led to a house-to-house search in Mubi during which an unspecified number of suspects were arrested.
The search began just as President Goodluck Jonathan ordered the security forces to intensify efforts to fish out the killers, widely believed to be Boko Haram insurgents, while Senate President David Mark called for capital punishment for the attackers.
The gunmen who had attacked students of the Federal Polytechnic, Adamawa State University and the School of Health Technology, all in Mubi, were said to have gone from room to room in a building in the town on Monday and killed the people they found there with guns and machetes.
However, the police were also said to be investigating whether the killings were as a result of a feud inside the college.
Ibrahim said the police were still keeping an open mind on whether the killing spree was carried out by militants or rival students
