Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari ordered an investigation into how 219 schoolgirls were kidnapped in the northeastern town of Chibok in April 2014 by Boko Haram militants, an incident that sparked an international social media campaign.
National Security Adviser Babagana Munguno will name the members of the panel, Garba Shehu, a presidential spokesman, said in an e-mailed statement on Thursday. Earlier, Buhari met some parents of the girls, most of who are still missing, in Abuja, the capital.
