How school principal handed over schoolgirls to Boko Haram men in military uniform.

THE Associated Press reported on Thursday how the principal of the
Government Secondary School, Chibok,Borno State,Asabe Kwambura,
mistakenly handed over 129 schoolgirls to Boko Haram gunmen, who posed
as military men.

The story was tweeted by Jon Gambrel on his twitter handle
@jongambrell/AP around noon on Thursday.

The principal said the insurgents arrived after midnight at her
school,wearing military fatigues and posing as soldiers. She said she
believed them when they told her that they needed to move the girls
for their own safety. So, she allowed the extremists posing as
soldiers to load the students on to the back of a truck.


"It was only as the armed men were leaving, and started shooting, that
I realised my mistake. The militants killed a soldier and a police
officer guarding the school," she said.
