Nigeria's Boko Haram 'abducts more women and girls'

[MerryBlooms]

Dozens of women and girls from two villages in Nigeria's north-eastern Adamawa state have been abducted by suspected militants, residents say.

The abductions have not been confirmed by the authorities, but residents say they took place a day after the military announced it had agreed a ceasefire with the Boko Haram group.

The government hopes the Islamist group will free more than 200 girls seized in April as part of negotiations.

Boko Haram has not confirmed the truce.

2. I think it was last week or maybe the week before, there was a post about the possible

release of the women/girls that were being held... it doesn't sound to me like that's going to happen.

3. I recall that post

And no, doesn't look likely now. These terrorist groups upset me, they love flaunting their hatred of females especially.

4. It's hard enough for me to read, I can't imagine watching any of the video.

5. You mean "tweeting" didn't make him release the girls and stop ?

6. This group needs to be stopped

This Boko Haram group needs to be stopped because women and children in Nigeria will feel safer when the group's members are rotting corpses.

7. the news of the "Truce" seem to be more about the President's Re-election

than anything else. looks like they put that news out so he doesn't get hurt in elections over those angry over how this has been dealt with.
