Boko Haram abducts Chibok girls

April 14, 2014

More than two hundred Nigerian schoolgirls were kidnapped from a boarding school in Borno State by Boko Haram fighters and disappeared into the dense Sambisa Forest. The hashtag #BringBackOurGirls trended globally, with everyone from Michelle Obama to the Pope holding signs. A few escaped, some were freed, some were married off to fighters. Many never came home.
