Half a hundred individuals captured at the school have since escaped according to religious organizations - but at least 250 remain unaccounted for.

The primary Catholic cleric across the territory has stated that the administration is undertaking "insufficient measures" to save captured persons.

The abduction at the school marked the third instance to hit Nigeria within seven days, pressuring national leadership to call off journey global meeting held in South Africa days ago to address the crisis.
