A secondary school in Umuahia has become the center of a shocking incident involving two female students, one of whom is now fighting for her life in the intensive care unit (ICU) following a violent attack. Due to privacy concerns, the identity of the victim has been withheld, but reports indicate that a dispute over food led to the girl suffering severe injuries, including the loss of part of her tongue.
The confrontation reportedly escalated quickly, culminating in the brutal injury inflicted on the victim by a fellow student. Although full details of the altercation remain unclear, sources indicate that the disagreement centered on food, which tragically ended with one girl hospitalized.
