After several fruitless efforts to break the barricade, the former minister then turned to one of the policewomen present there, saying, "shame on you".

On Tuesday, July 25, 2017, four lecturers of the University of Maiduguri, Borno State, were abducted in the Magumeri area of the State during an oil exploration.

Similarly, the terror group in July released a video showing 10 women its fighters abducted from a military/police convoy in Borno State.

The terrorists had claimed that some of the women are police officers but the Nigeria Police has since denied the claims.
