The abduction last week of 42 people, including 27 schoolchildren and three teachers, from their school dormitory in Kagara, Niger State, is extremely concerning. But it cannot be considered surprising, even to casual observers outside Nigeria. This explains how little international attention the incident has received.

It is the result of many years of sending criminals a message that they can get away with their crimes.
