It seems the Boko Haram insurgents are having a field day and their new modus operandi is to kidnap women whom they turn inti sex slaves. Two months after they kidnapped over 200 female students in Chibok, Borno State, they have struck in the same area and abducted more than 20 women.

Barely two months after more than 200 female students of Government Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, were abducted by the violent Boko Haram sect, the insurgents are reported to have attacked three nomadic Fulani settlements of Bakin Kogi, Garkin Fulani and Rugar Hardo along Damboa road in Chibok local government, where no fewer than 20 young women were snatched.

According to reports, the Boko Haram members went to the village armed to the teeth and while shooting sporadically to scare away any security forces and the local vigilante groups, and in the process, seized the women, ordered them into pick up vans at gunpoint and drove them off to an unknown location, leaving behind old men and women.

Though the Borno State Commissioner of Police has come out to say the incident did not happen, we gather from a source who is an indigene of Chibok town that a relative who lives close to the settlements, called him to confirm that the Boko Haram sect actually stormed the villages and that the number of kidnapped women is more than the 20 given.

Recall that the Chibok girls are still in the hands of the Boko Haram insurgents and their rescue is no where near.
