April 15th In Nigerian History.

      It was between the night of 14th–15th April, in 2014, when a number of 276  female students from the Government Secondary School in the town of Chibok in Borno State were kidnapped by the popular Boko Haram Insurgency.

northeastern, Nigeria broke into the school, pretending to be guards, telling the girls to get out and come with them. A large number of students were taken away in trucks, possibly into the Konduga area of the Sambisa Forest where Boko Haram were known to have their fortified camps. Houses in Chibok were also burned during the incident.

    Later on over a few months, about fifty-seven of the Chibok schoolgirls managed to escape and some have come out at international human rights conferences to describe their capture.

   After the incident, the school was later closed for several weeks due to the deteriorating security situation, but students from multiple schools was called in to take their final exams in physics.

   Thank God, the Federal Government has been making efforts to reduce the effective operations of the Boko Haram Sects.
