More students from the Government Girls' Secondary School, in Chibok, have been freed this evening in the ongoing Search & Rescue operations to free the abducted students.
On Monday, members from the Boko Haram Islamic sect had kidnapped upwards of 200 students in a nighttime raid on the school. They were heavily armed, and some wore military uniforms in an attack that included several fires, with an exchange of gunfire on the state run school.
