can't believe we're living in times where our schools are being held hostage 
these kids should be learning, not hiding 
Wow 
- I'm glad to hear that some of the kidnapped schoolkids are finally going home! The fact that it was a deal with the abductors is crazy though 
, can you even imagine negotiating with someone holding your kids hostage? Interesting 
how this incident highlights the kidnap-for-ransom crisis in Nigeria, and what's worrying is that it's become a lucrative industry for armed groups... bad timing

I'm surprised they were able to get the kids out safely, but what's with all these 'deals' with kidnappers? 
How can we trust that the remaining students are safe when there are so many loose ends? Did Nigeria really get a good deal or was this just a PR stunt? 
Sources on this deal are sketchy at best. I need more info before I believe it. 
What about the 165 other staff and students who are still missing? Are we just gonna forget about them now? 
This whole kidnap-for-ransom crisis in Nigeria needs a serious investigation, not just some hush-hush deals with unknown parties.
