In a related development, the Associated Press and the BBC said that police acting on the orders of Nigerias first lady, Patience Jonathan, arrested leaders of the movement protesting what they see as the governments disinterest in tracking down the girls.
A leader of a protest march for the missing schoolgirls says Nigerias first lady abused them, expressed doubts there was any kidnapping and accused them of belonging to the network blamed for the abductions. Then she ordered two of them arrested, the AP reported.
Saratu Angus Ndirpaya of Chibok town said State Security Service agents drove her and protest leader Naomi Mutah Nyadar to a police station Monday after an all-night meeting at the presidential villa in Abuja, the capital. She said Nyadar remains in detention. Police could not be reached for comment.
