The Principal of Government Girls
Secondary School, Chibok, Asabe Kwambura, has said the military lied when they
said they had rescued almost all the girls, excluding 8 who were kidnapped on
Monday by suspected Boko Haram sect members from the school premises.
She told Premium Times this morning
that, “There is nothing in the military statement that is true about our
abducted girls. Up till now we are still waiting and praying for the safe
return of the students; all I know is that we have only 14 of them, and the
security people especially the Vigilante and the well-meaning volunteers of
Gwoza are still out searching for them. The military people too are in the bush
searching. So we have not received any information that they have gotten the
students yet. So let it be clear that all the information passed on the media
by the military concerning 107 girls is not true, she said”. Continue after the
cut.
It will be recalled that, the
military spokesperson at the Defence Headquarters, yesterday issued a statement
claiming that 107 abducted girls were freed; adding that only eight of the
girls were still missing and the military was searching for them. He also
claimed that a member of the Boko Haram sect that participated in the abduction
has also been nabbed.
As it is now, the reports contradict
each other, and we really hope the girls are safe.
