The Christian Association of Nigeria, Borno State Chapter, has urgently demanded the rescue of 78 abducted schoolchildren and others who have been held captive for over 100 days in the state. At a prayer session marking 'CAN at 50' in Maiduguri, state CAN Chairman Most Reverend John Bakeni called for the rescue, stating that the spate of abductions in the state left many residents between economic hardship and insecurity.
The association is using its advocacy role to urge authorities to take action to free the kidnapped children.
