More than 100 Nigerian schoolgirls are missing after Boko Haram attack

More than 100 Nigerian schoolgirls are missing after an attack on a boarding school by Boko Haram jihadists.

Militants raided their school on Monday evening, but many of the students and staff had fled before they arrived.

It was initially thought that the girls had escaped but two days later their whereabouts are still not known.

The attack comes four years after Boko Haram kidnapped more than 270 girls from a school in the town of Chibok.

Eight hundred and fifteen students returned to the school and were visibly seen, out of 926 in the school.

Officials told BBC that they are not calling this a kid-napping and says many of the girls and teachers ran into the bush and may still be found.
