Nigeria: Reps demand urgent rescue of 116 abducted schoolchildren in Borno

Nigeria's House of Representatives has called for intensified security operations to rescue 116 schoolchildren abducted in Borno State, along with other captives. The abduction continues a pattern of mass kidnappings in the region, but the scale and targeting of children underscore persistent insecurity. The demand signals political pressure on security forces, though operational outcomes remain uncertain.
