HOLDING the unenviable record of being home to the highest number of out-of-school children, OSC, about 15 million, and also regarded as the poverty capital of the world, Nigeria’s quest for economic and social growth will be further hampered if the trend of abduction of school children is not stopped now, stakeholders have said.
The mass abduction of school children started with the kidnap of students of Government Secondary School in Chibok, Borno State on April 14, 2014 and was followed by the abduction of over 110 school girls in Dapchi, Yobe State on February 19, 2018.
While over 100 of the Chibok girls are still missing, only Leah Sharibu, is still unaccounted for among the Dapchi girls. However, with the abduction of students in Government Science College, Kankara, Katsina State, last December and a repeat of the incident at the Government Science College, Kagara, Niger State, penultimate Wednesday, it is like the kidnap of students to bargain for certain

ON the night of April 14, 2014, some innocent girls at a secondary school in Chibok, Borno State, were abducted from the school by Boko Haram insurgents.
The number of the affected girls was given as 276. They were sitting for their West African Examinations Council papers. Up until now, no fewer than 112 girls are still missing, as only some of them were able to escape or were released after negotiations with their abductors.
Not long afterwards, girls in another secondary school in Dapchi, Yobe State were also kidnapped, thus opening another chapter in Nigeria’s battle with insecurity.
