NIGERIAN BOKO HARAM PLANS TO SELL THE 276 ABDUCTED GIRLS TO THE MARKET?

Suspected Boko Haram gunmen have kidnapped eight girls aged between 12 and 15 from a village near one of their strongholds in northeast Nigeria. 

A police source said the girls were taken away in the early hours of Tuesday on trucks, along with looted livestock and food. 

The Islamist rebels are still holding 276 girls they abducted from a secondary school on April 14. 

Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau said in a video released on Monday that Allah had told him to sell the girls taken by his fighters from a secondary school in the village of Chibok, in northeastern Borno state.

The abduction on Tuesday appears to bear similarities to the mass kidnapping on Good Friday.

In the Chibok attack, as with the Warabe seizure, the militants arrived disguised as soldiers.
