Again, South-West waits for terrorists to strike

Two weeks after the abduction of about fifty Nigerians, including school pupils and teachers, by a faction of Boko Haram in the communities of Ahoro-Esinele and Yawota, the situation remains critical. Two of the hostages, Joel Adesiyan and Michael Oyedokun, have died, one during a rescue attempt and the other beheaded by the terrorists. Authorities appear paralyzed, waiting to know the next decisions of the kidnappers, who demanded to speak to the state governor, Seyi Makinde.
