Boko Haram kidnaps almost 200 girls from their school in Borno.

Reports have it that 103 girls (students) were kidnapped during an attack on a Girls Secondary School located in Chibok, a town on the border of Adamawa and Borno state last night April 14th.
The gunmen were said to have  arrived at the school in Chibok at about 9pm, killed the soldier stationed to protect the students and carted away 103 out of the 250 girls that were in the school. The girls were carted away in four lorries. 
But BBC Africa has reported that the number of  the kidnapped girls is as high as 200.
Residents of the area say the raid, which lasted from 9pm-3am, saw the destruction of several properties as the men overpowered the residents who put up initial defense.
Police Commissioner in Borno state, Lawan Tanko confirmed the incident to reporters in the state. 

Yesterday was indeed a black monday. how can this 2 disaster happen in just one day? i pray and hope the girls are found/rescued alive, and reunited with their family sooN
