News reports coming from some online journals shows that more than 200 female students abducted on April 14 from
Government Girls School,Chibok, in Borno State are passing through hard
times, with some of them being raped as much as 15 times a day.
One of the abducted girls who managed to escape made this shocking revelations.
According Daily Mirror, “Families of the schoolgirls, aged between 15 to
18, are certain their daughters are now being used as sex slaves by an
extreme sect that has killed 1,500 people since the start of this year
alone. They are captives in the wild Sambisa Forest in north-east
Nigeria where Boko Haram has a heavily armed camp of bunkers, tunnels,
ramshackle buildings and tents.
“One girl who recently escaped following an earlier kidnapping said she was prized as a terror leader’s wife because she had been a virgin. She said young female captives were raped up to 15 times a day, forced to convert to Islam and had their throats cut if they refused.”
Daily Mirror said that “under President Goodluck Jonathan, the Nigerian
government appears to have done little except issue an entirely false
claim that most of the girls had been rescued by defense forces.”
It quotes Mma Odi, executive director of the Nigerian charity Baobab Women’s Human Rights, as saying:

“It is a very bad situation for those girls. The men went to the school
for no other reason than to make them their sex objects. The men will
have reduced them to sex slaves, raping them over and over again. And
any girl who tries to resist will be shot by them. They have no
conscience.
“The conditions will be terrible and it seems like the government has just abandoned them because they are girls and they are poor. If they were the sons of the rich, the government would act. Their abductors are not human beings and if the girls get out they will no longer be normal. They will have to have years of counselling to recover.”
Also indicting the Jonathan led administration, Professor Hauwa Biu, a women’s rights campaigner based at the University of Maiduguri, told Daily Mirror: “They claim they are on top of the situation, that they are in the bush, but they are not there. If the government had acted straight away then they could have followed the gunmen’s footsteps or tyre tracks, but over the past weeks rain and leaves have fallen, covering them up.
“Meanwhile, nobody knows what kind of conditions they will be living in the camp. I cannot think what these girls must be going through. I have been told that the men feed them and treat them quite well, but we also know that other girls kidnapped have been highly molested.
“If the government had just acted straight away they could have saved these girls.”

If this is true, the rapists are the worst kind of scum and will, at the moment of separation from this life, experience a sorrow that will be the greatest of sorrows a man can know. The leaders that have led them to this behavior will find an even worse type of sorrow. If any of such people somehow are taken into custody by any authorities who could administer punishment, may they experience starvation and misery beyond imagination. Abducting young girls and bringing sadness upon them is unforgivable by anyone. Such weak minds they have! Alone, they would not do such things, but led like sheep they produce nothing of value, only bring shame to their kind.
