BOKO HARAM ABDUCTS 8 CAMEROONIAN GIRLS, KILL SEVEN.
The Islamic terrorist group, Boko Haram,
have abducted eight Cameroonian girls and killed seven hostages after seizing a
public bus in the country as stated by
residents on Tuesday.
The Islamic group
kidnapped more than 300 secondary schoolgirls in a town called Chibok, Nigeria, in April last year of which the international community condemned such act. The principal of a school in the area, Chetima Ahmidou, said that the group has taken eight Cameroonian girls hostage.
The girls range in age between 11years and 14years, and come
from the town of Koza, he said. The bus attack took place Sunday about 11 miles
(18 kilometres) from Cameroon’s border with Nigeria.
Seven other hostages were
slain and their bodies scattered near the border, said Ahmidou, whose brother
was the bus driver and was among those killed.
May the souls of the deceased rest in peace.
