Policemen at the venue watched on while the thugs attacked civilians with bottles and other sharp objects. “The attack was fierce,” one of the campaigners told TheCable. “The attackers acted as if they were on drugs. Some of them were wearing red shirts with the inscription, #releaseOurGirlsNow.” The campaigners have been meeting at the fountain every day since April 30, 2014, to pressure the federal government into revving up its efforts to rescue the 276 female pupils of Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, abducted last month by Boko Haram.
