MADNESS: BOKO HARAM Demand Cows in Exchange for Abducted Women
Residents have however desclosed
that the women abducted were up to 30. Villagers from Chibok revealed to
Reuters that they had met nomads fleeing last week’s raids and saying the
kidnappers were demanding cattle in exchange for the women. “One of them named
Mohammed told me Boko Haram held the men at gunpoint and moved from hut to hut
taking the women,” said Yahaya Musa. “The abductors told them to bring a ransom
of cows,” said farmer Yakub Chibok. Police and army spokesmen said they could not
confirm the accounts that women were taken on Thursday in areas outside Chibok.
However, according to officials the nomadic settlements hit included Bakin
Kogi, Garkin Fulani and Rigar Hardo.
