Chibok is the town where over 200 teenage girls were
kidnapped from their school dormitory over a year ago by
the Boko Haram sect.
Two suicide bombers suspected, to be female, on January
27 detonated their explosive devices at the main market,
as well as at a military check point in Chibok town.
The BBOG group said it was yet to see any statement by
the Nigerian government on the January 27 attack, and
promised to continue engaging in the creation of
awareness and seeking for the return of the Chibok-girls
from their captors.
Meanwhile, President Muhammadu Buhari has called on
Nigerians living in the northeast of the country to remain
vigilant against terrorism and to work with the security
forces.
