Sad News: 11 Parents Of Chibok’s Kidnapped Girls Die

At least 11 parents of the abducted Chibok girls have died Since the
mass abduction of the schoolgirls by terrorist group three months ago,
and their hometown, Chibok, is under siege from the militants, residents
report.

Since the mass abduction of the schoolgirls by Islamic extremists
three months ago, at least 11 of their parents have died and their
hometown, Chibok, is under siege from the militants, residents report.

Seven fathers of kidnapped girls were among 51 bodies brought to Chibok
hospital after an attack on the nearby village of Kautakari this month,
said a health worker who insisted on anonymity for fear of reprisals by
the extremists.

At least four more parents have died of heart failure, high blood
pressure and other illnesses that the community blames on trauma due to
the mass abduction 100 days ago, said community leader Pogu Bitrus, who
provided their names.

“One father of two of the girls kidnapped just went into a kind of
coma and kept repeating the names of his daughters, until life left

studded with burned out vehicles. Commercial flights no longer go into
the troubled area and the government has halted charter flights.

Associated Press has gathered information about the situation in the
town where the students were kidnapped from their school.

along with shortages of money and fuel, said community leader Bitrus.

On the bright side, some of the young women who escaped are recovering,
said a health worker, who insisted on anonymity because he feared
reprisals from Boko Haram. Girls who had first refused to discuss their
experience, now are talking about it and taking part in therapeutic
singing and drawing — a few drew homes, some painted flowers and one
young woman drew a picture of a soldier with a gun last week.
