Nigeria School Kidnapping: 50 children escape, 253 still in captivity | Firstpost Africa | N18G

In Nigeria, 50 schoolchildren who were kidnapped last week have escaped captivity and are safe with their families. The abduction occurred at St. Mary’s Catholic School in Papiri, where over 300 students were taken. As of now, 253 children and 12 teachers remain missing. No group has claimed responsibility for the kidnappings, and the motive is unclear. Nearly 50 schools in Northern Nigeria have been evacuated due to rising threats, while exams have been halted. Parents express distress over school closures, emphasising children's safety over education. The US is considering sanctions and enhanced counterterrorism cooperation with Nigeria in light of the continuing kidnappings, which have become a recurring national crisis. The urgent goal now is to rescue those still missing and prevent further kidnappings.
