nigeria. and that is disturbing. just last week we had more than 400 kidnapped in the northeast, internally displaced people, kidnappedere are a lot of terrorists. there are a lot of terrorist groups ravaging the north of nigeria, in the north—west and northeast and these kidnappings have gone on for a long time. the children that were kidnapped were elementary school and high school children in this area, if you know, is a christian community in a very divided state where the lines are divided between muslims and christians and it is a really troubling phenomenon that is going on there.— troubling phenomenon that is going on there. why students? wh are going on there. why students? why are they — going on there. why students? why are they going _ going on there. why students? why are they going after - going on there. why students? why are they going after young people? is this trying to get a ransom or are they political or terror? �* u, , ransom or are they political or terror? �* , ., �* 4' ., terror? because we don't know them, we _ terror? because we don't know them, we don't _ terror? because we don't know them

nigeria. the gang killed more than a hundred civilians in the northeast on saturday.bout 36,000 nigerians have died at the hands of boka haram over the past 11 years. surprisingly, for some reason , no one has yet asked the question: where did one of the most bloodthirsty terrorist groups end up with the latest missiles and tanks? nigerian troops captured a t-50 armored tank. and this weapon is truly terrible. in the fall of 2022 , the president of nigeria told the bors about the sources of the latest weapons in the hands of militants. unfortunately, the situation in the sahel and the raging war in ukraine serve as the main sources of weapons and fighters. this is illegal movement into the region. nobody knows the real volumes of weapons exported from ukraine. you know, there was a period at some point in the early 2000s when warehouses began to explode, now in one place, now in another. look, look, the rockets are flying, yes. no one talks about this. on march 23, 2017, kharkov region, leevsky district, this flew out . on september 26, 2017, in the village of kalinov

nigeria and that's very disturbing. just last week we had more than 400 people kidnapped in the northeast, idp�*s kidnapped by terroriststs of terrorist groups ravaging the north of nigeria come from the northwest to the north—east, and these kidnapped have gone on for a long time. the children that were kidnapped were elementary school and high school children in kaduna state. it is a christian community in a very, very divided state where the lines are divided between muslims and christians and so it's really troubling phenomenon that's going on there. why students? why are the kidnappers going after young people? are they trying to get a ransom or making a political statement, is this about terror, what is behind this? because we don't know them, we don't know their reasoning. but then i think that the very easy ones that we can think about first of all is that it's easier to kidnap school children because they are together, they are a mass group, they're constantly together, they are in unprotected spaces in school, all of the time, that makes them very easy targets. if you remember the chibok girls, we have many ki

boko haram is terrorizing northern nigeria, on saturday the gang killed more than a hundred civilians in the northeastusand nigerians have died at the hands of boko haram over the past 11 years. to the surprise. for some reason before until now, no one has asked the question of how one of the bloodiest terrorist groups ended up with the latest missiles and tanks. nigerian troops captured a t-55 armored tank and a high-tech armored personnel carrier from islamist insurgents in a battle in kandugi, borno state yesterday. the weapons in the hands of the terrorists were truly terrible and unusual. unfortunately, the situation in the sahel and the raging war in ukraine serve as the main sources of weapons and fighters. this illegal movement of weapons into the region has increased the proliferation of small arms and light weapons, which continues to threaten our collective peace and security in the region. today, nigeria remains one of the centers of international. there are 36 states in nigeria, only about five of them kidnapping is not part of the daily life of citizens, serious security problems, seriou

let's turn to nigeria now, where there have been two mass kidnappings — one in the northeast and oneed in a camp in the town of gambaru — after fleeing their homes because of attacks by the insurgents. in a second mass kidnapping in the country this week, reports say more than 200 nigerian school students have been abducted in the north—western town of kuriga. the students, between the ages of 8 and 15, were taken away. the regional governor has vowed to bring every child home. we have also sat down with the parents of those children that have been kidnapped. in doing that, we sent a strong message to the mothers, and we made it clear to them that one of the most important things for the government is to ensure that we protect the lives and properties of our citizens. let's speak to our west africa correspondent, mayenijones, who's in maiduguri. there is a big search underway for these 280 pupils but what do we know about the incident when they were taken? ., ., , ,._ , about the incident when they were taken? ., ., , , ., taken? the authorities say they are throwin: taken? the autho

nigeria's government is failing to do this. it's the second mass abduction in less than a week. across the country in the northeastised by islamist militants for 15 years. 2 million have fled their homes to live in camps and fortified towns protected by the army, but beyond the gates, the gunmen are in control. 150 kilometres down this road in the region of ngala, dozens of internally displaced women and children were abducted last week. we can't get there because the area still has a heavy presence of boko haram militants. although the authorities have worked hard to make this area a lot safer than it was ten years ago, large swathes of borno are still too dangerous to access. in april 2014, boko haram abducted 276 schoolgirls from the town of chibok. the group said it was against western education. many of the girls were forced to marry their captors. now boko haram is splintered and weakened. these days, kidnappings of children in nigeria are often motivated by money, with ransom demands for their release. abduction, kidnapping, became a way of getting money. even in the capital now, we have up to three kidnapp

support phone put the situation in nigeria in terms of security is difficult to say the least, the security forces arrive as fresh spencer. we're seeing problems in the northeast, which has been the case for more than a decade in terms of islamic states and then also lastly, bulk of around whether that's a diminished group. and then in the north west, we seem so to find that. so these criminal guns are roving and uncovered spaces. and when you see the groups, let's say i'm excited to the shop region, and then the so co bonded to bo freely now without for per um, communication between african countries. so then then we're going to remove all of these problems and that will come if molly between if i so, and as i say the, let's say for the top rope, it's been too much for us to speak to nigeria and then they don't can speak to us the partners as well. okay. could be a so we've reached this point, this critical junction where you have the knowledge, molly, news, your book enough also pointing out the from the g 5, which was instrumental in the fight against the insurgency threatening to pull out from the eco us. what does it leave all the countries like laurie ta

nigeria. the area where it happens is dominated by a group called ansaru. it�*s a fraction, a splinter group of boko haram. and here in the northeastck to this camp for internally displaced people, said that it was boko haram fighters that had taken the dozens of women or children that went missing late last week. they were out gathering firewood by their camp when they disappeared. next month is going to be ten years since there�*s 276 girls were taken from their dormitory, from their school in chibok. and it�*s interesting that as the anniversary is looming closer, we�*re seeing a resurgence in these kind of mass kidnappings, because i think it has to be said they hadn�*t really happened a lot in the last couple of years. the last big one like this was in 2021. although nigerians were still being kidnapped, they were in much smaller numbers. and so it�*s interesting that as the chibok anniversary is coming by, we�*re seeing a resurgence in this kind of attack which always brings so much publicity to boko haram. some breaking news from the united states. it pertains to one of the cases involving donald trump. you may remember that

we don't tony northeast in time that the, the nigerian ami searching for at least 15 children, abducted from the religious school in northwest nigeria. and the launch group broke into the village school in the zip code to state on saturday morning and said that must kidnapping in nigeria in less than a fortnight. who follows the kidnapping of 287 pupils? i'm a teacher of the school in kaduna state on thursday. mid interest reports as one of the programs being bad in rest during the 287 missing children from our 40 got primary school in northwest nigeria is being closely guarded by the will for just a given little information away. now what they are asking, everyone is to keep calm that they always double the situation. but a lot of people, especially security analysts, are saying that belongs to rest 2 of his people, all the rest of his kids be more precarious situation. what we're talking about have bus foreigners this purchase across spies, not states in northern nigeria, i'm from yeah. it's in the state for areas like soccer tourism, florida, and typically most days where i be spending something over aging and they have the accou

mind that should have bought a wave nigeria and nigeria is having a tough time in terms of its security situation is full since august strep. so in the northeast of my tv that's longstanding is always do a search and see that we've seen around to make sure that area. and then in the northwest themselves can find this is a criminal done stuff because last year and governs based on these groups can easily now just push no image and i think and force and move. right. okay, alexis, thank you for breaking that down for us, alexis, a good you were a managing editor, summer for africa, from london. thank if or eunice says one of its 8 containers that haiti's main course has been lucid. gang violence has gripped months of the capital, poor to prince, caribbean nations, and the us all trying to form a transitional council to restore law and order, but has gone home and reports from santa domingo a neighboring dominican republic. gang lead is off fighting to maintain that control. another descent into k o. c, i hate to looting in the pool. the same, the carriages that's gone for criminal games are on the street. fighting with the hopelessly outmatched p
