According to Daily Mail, numerous villages in the
area were cleared out and schools torched by the
terrorists even despite the presence of elite troops of
Battalion D'Intervention Rapide (B.I.R).
Speaking with Sky News, residents said Boko Haram
raided villages during the daytime to snatch boys.
One of the boys narrated how he refused to join the
terrorists, causing substantial tension, however he
managed to escape from them.
While Nigeria accuses Cameroon of being unable to
prevent the insurgents from crossing the border and
thus letting them hide in the neighbouring country,
the spokesperson of Cameroon's Defence Ministry
Lieutenant Colonel Badjeck claims speaking with Sky
News:
"They [Boko Haram] are not in Cameroon. Why would
we allow that? This is bad for Cameroon. We are
suffering too at the hands of Boko Haram."
It would be recalled that more than two months have
passed since
the abduction of over 250 Chibok
school girls. The feared sect claimed responsibility for
the kidnap 3 weeks later stating that they would sell
the girls in the market.
Numerous experts alleged that the students might
have been splitt into groups and relocated to the
neighbouring countries
. Later Cameroon and Chad
claimed they might block the main routes said to be
used by insurgents.
Despite the international support in the find-and-
rescue operation, the abduction victims still remain in
captivity.
