Abduction Of Amina
Amina was 19 when she was kidnapped from her home in northeastern Nigeria by Boko Haram militants. With murderous blows from their machetes, they made her a widow and a captive.
Boko Haram has abducted an unknown number of women and girls like Amina to be brutalized, raped and forced into service by their captors. Remember the Chibok girls? More than 250 students kidnapped years ago from a school in the same region of Nigeria where Amina lives. Their abduction opened the world’s eyes to Boko Haram’s campaign of terror.
