Boko Haram has seized the town of
Chibok in Borno state, northeast Nigeria, from where 276 schoolgirls were
kidnapped more than six months ago, a local pastor and a senator told AFP on
Friday.
"Chibok was taken by Boko
Haram. They are in control," said Enoch Mark, a Christian pastor whose
daughter and niece are among the 219 teenagers still being held.
Mark and the senator for southern Borno,
Ali Ndume, said the militants attacked at about 4 pm (11pm Singapore time) on
Thursday, destroying communications masts and forcing residents to flee.
