ICC Note:
It is disconcerting that minors are being indoctrinated by Boko Haram to kill their teachers. The Islamic terrorist group’s name Boko Haram means “Western Education is Sin”. It is no surprise then, that Boko Haram targets attacks and forces the shutting down of schools, abducts students and kills teachers. The Chibok girls were abducted from their boarding school. Regions where Boko Haram is in control are forced to shut down their schools in fear of attacks. ICC is currently in the process of opening a school in an IDP Camp for children of families who were have displaced by Boko Haram. Would you like to help? Please donate to our Kids Care fund.
