Boko Haram, Nigeria’s homegrown Islamist insurgency, whose name in Hausa
roughly translates as “Western education is forbidden,” has abducted at
least 500 women and girls from northern Nigerian since 2009 and has
perpetrated numerous human rights abuses against them in captivity. The
April 14, 2014 abduction of 276 girls from a secondary school in Chibok,
a rural town in Borno State, focused a much-needed spotlight on this
increasing scourge.
