Nigeria’s president says the remaining 24 schoolgirls who were abducted from a school last week have been rescued. A total of 25 girls were taken by armed assailants in northwestern Kebbi state, though one escaped the same day. No details were provided on how the other 24 were saved. It is among a number of other such attacks in Nigeria, including a raid on Friday in which more than 300 students and staff were taken from a Catholic school in North Central Niger state; 50 students managed to escape, though the rest remain in captivity.
