Abuja, May 8 (RHC)-- News of the latest attack comes amid a global outcry over the Boko Haram’s kidnapping of nearly 300 schoolgirls in the same region. On Wednesday, protests continued in the capital Abuja calling on the Nigerian government to step up its search for the missing girls.
Nigerian police have offered a $300,000 reward for information leading to the girls’ rescue. A video from the Boko Haram this week threatened to sell the girls into captivity amid rumors that’s already happened.
Suspected Boko Haram gunmen kidnapped eight more girls from a village near one of the Islamists' strongholds in northeastern Nigeria on Monday night.
The kidnappings, and other attacks by Boko Haram, have overshadowed Nigeria's hosting of the World Economic Forum, which got underway in Abuja on Wednesday evening. Nigerian officials had hoped the event would draw attention to the potential of Africa's biggest economy as an investment destination.
