    Report: Nigeria ignored mass abduction in 2014

    500 women and children were abducted at the end of 2014 in northeastern Nigeria by the Boko Haram terrorist organization, but local authorities ignored the event, a local village elder told a French news agency.

    “We did not report the abductions out of fear that we would anger the government, who was already dealing with the disgrace caused by the abduction of a group of schoolgirls in 2014.”
