Nigerian Girl Who Escaped Boko Haram Says She Still Feels Afraid By Nima Elbagir and Lillian Leposo CNN updated 4:21 AM EDT, Mon May 12, 2014 http://www.cnn.com/2014/05/11/world/africa/nigeria-escaped-schoolgirl-speaks/ . .Editor's note: CNN's Nima Elbagir, Lillian Leposo and Nick Migwe made the dangerous journey to Chibok, Nigeria, to gather firsthand accounts of the abduction of the schoolgirls -- and how people in the northeastern town are still living in fear.
.Chibok, Nigeria (CNN) -- The terrifying news began to spread before the gun-wielding Islamist militants made it into Chibok last month. Villagers began to receive cell phone calls that the feared extremist group Boko Haram was on the way.
.No one knew what the attack would entail, that it would mean hundreds of schoolgirls plucked from their beds by a group of extremists who would later threaten to sell them.
. snip ."We would rather die than go," one of the girls told CNN. "We ran into the bush. We ran and we ran."
.With fear in her eyes and voice, the young woman, who asked not to be identified, described the experience to a CNN crew that made the long, dangerous trip to her village.
.She said she and two friends who had also escaped saw something on fire and headed in that direction, presuming it was building in the village that had been set ablaze. Normally, Chibok is pitch black at night.
. snip .The villagers said police called for reinforcements, but none came. Everyone, including the police, fled into the bush during the attack. But the girls were asleep in their dorms.
.The stories appear to confirm an Amnesty International report that the government couldn't put together enough troops to head off the attack.
.The girl who described her escape to CNN was still shaken up by the events. When asked to describe what her kidnappers wore, she responded: "I feel afraid."
. Her school is closed, but if it were open, she says, she wouldn't go back. . . The complete article may be read at the URL above. . . Additional Topics Covered in This Article: .
