A recent report received by the Ministry of Education highlighted the bullying incident at the Federal Government College Enugu, which raised concerns about safety and discipline within the school environment.

According to the findings of the Ministry, some incidents involved gang assault of an SS1 student (a day student) by a group of students on November 7th, 2024.
