On 29 May 2015 Reuters reported:
When local people warned that hundreds of Islamist militants were heading towards his remote town of Chibok in northeastern Nigeria, Danuma Mphur hurried to summon help. As chairman of the Parent Teachers Association at the town's school, Mphur feared for the safety of children who were staying there to take exams. Mphur says he called the police and the local government chairman. In turn the local government chairman also called the police and contacted the military commander in Chibok between 9:30 p.m. and 10 p.m. on that evening, according to Kashim Shettima, the governor of Borno state, which includes Chibok. Backup never arrived. The military said in a statement that it received no warning about the attack. Either way, about three hours after Mphur rang for help, Boko Haram militants swept into Chibok and abducted 276 girls from the school. The mass kidnap on the night of April 14 sparked headlines worldwide -- but it was far from the first misstep in Nigeria's war against Boko Haram. Divisions, low morale, and corruption within the military have allowed the Islamist militants to take over large swathes of Nigeria's northeast.
