I thought we could include the incident of a kidnapping near Abuja, recently, which has not been so newsworthy. Bokoharamwatch ( talk) 18:37, 27 February 2021 (UTC) What about Mahuta? Bokoharamwatch ( talk) 20:11, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
Out of curiosity, why is mdy being used? Isn't dmy Nigeria's format? Nehme 1499 23:15, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
Sadly such incidents tend to recur, so we are likely to see more incidents in future years. I thus suggest that the year "2021" might helpfully be inserted into the title of this article. And likewise with the Kagara kidnapping article. Rif Winfield ( talk) 13:40, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
multiple sources and the article state that the raid happened at 01:00 local time. A school should not be opened at that hour. Idan (username is Zvikorn) ( talk) 17:12, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
The numbers don't add up according to The Guardian. It says that 279 girls have been released, yet in the article it is 317. And also it should be updated, because they have been released. - Matroxko ( talk) 08:54, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
Have the bandits been put to justice? AidTheWiki ( talk) 14:41, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
Unfortunate; I hope they are arrested. Thank you for the informative response, Jurisdicta AidTheWiki ( talk) 15:08, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

According to the article, these politicians refused to stop stroking themselves even when the parents demanded their children, then used deadly force to ensure that their speeches would finish. Given that these quotes are all useless, non-informative claptrap, they should be removed as WP:QUOTEFARM anyway. Abductive ( reasoning) 19:42, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
A 3rd mass kidnapping took place today. See Kaduna State kidnapping. This is just a notice to editors who helped edit this article. Elijahandskip ( talk) 13:31, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
Thanks. Was going to ask of it, since being off internet for few days. Bokoharamwatch ( talk) 17:27, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
A new kidnapping today. Has this article been created? Bokoharamwatch ( talk) 16:27, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
