This situation should deeply question the inner mind of all those in charge of this great country. Do they have the capacity or the will to make things improve? Nigeria has no problem of means. So what's wrong? Why could Singapore develop with less potentialities? Why?
Best of luck on finding the rest. Rescue from the thug perverts who took them. Not a shred of decency gets young folks to despicable events. Power play from weaklings with guns

Its a business that involves those who are close to the government, has any of those people being captured? No, but government paid ransom and denied it.
What do you expect it’s Nigeria! This isn’t news it’s just day to day stuff! SMH
United Nations, Nigeria needs to be disqualified from being a member of UN! Women & young children need to be protected from systemic cultural discrimination! How is it possible that a country smaller than Texas is able to not capture 'demons' that keep capturing girls & boys?

The more attacks in the media, the more cohesive the Saudi people become
Russian collusion.
Where is BLM and Antifa over the millions dead in Africa in the past 25 yrs from ruthless governments, internal fighting, disease, starvation, poverty, Islamic terrorists while they open their mouths over a few thugs killed by cops here and when they not follow police orders
We must remove the majority of the Republicans from the congress, he always blocked the help of the poor, but if it were for his friends, they vote quickly, among them is the Democrat Manchini and Sinema.

Should have been 42 people and a celebrity dog. The news may have actually reported this properly. This is a daily thing in Africa
A country where the Governor of a state boast publicly of calling a group of terrorist on phone for the release of hostages Country where the Federal Government don’t know their priorities Country whereby the politicians and so called government encourages terrorism 😭😭
And you believe? Nigeria government are jokers. Dont ever believe them
The rate of kidnapping and adoption in Nigeria it quite scary, government should try to stop such illegal activities going on over there.
This country nawaoo
That's one of those rare occasions. What a huge relief! And a very satisfying outcome. Thank God ! 😇🙄😆
probably cause the kidnappers got paid
Nigeria my country is just a series movie
I want to become a child kidnapper! Pog!
umm ok but who asked
PogChamp
God bless them
Lmao
Yup, it's not even the kidnapping that is the problem. It's the fact that there was no investigation into it whatsoever. The police and security forces are completely incompetent and have been caught red-handed doing exactly what they're doing.
