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.
