The Nigerian Air Force says it has been able to identify possible locations of the abducted Chibok girls.

The Director of Public Relations at the Nigerian Air Force, Group Captain Ayodele Famuyiwa, told Channels Television that the Air Force is abstaining from attacking the area to make sure that the girls are not hit.

He explained that the latest aerial bombardment of Sambisa forest had been aimed at the logistics base of the Boko Haram sect and not areas where the Chibok girls could be located.

“We have no fears that the girls are not there because that particular location has been under surveillance for quite a while and we suspected maybe its a kind of ammunition depot or maybe a workshop that they are using as their logistics place.

“Once you take off the logistics base, of course you gradually weaken the resolve of the enemy to be able to prosecute any campaign,” he said.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

Group Captain Ayodele Famuyiwa also explained some of the tactics used by the Air Force to locate the girls.

He said, ” The UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) has become a force multiplier for us because its cheaper to run these platforms, you are not putting men there (and) the risk of losing human beings is greatly reduced.

“Again the UAVs have the capability to be airborne for up to eleven hours and its quite cheap to maintain. So, we have been able to employ the UAV to a great extent to carry out reconnaissance and surveillance basically for intelligence gathering on the activities of the Boko Haram.”

He said that the UAVs have also helped the Air Force to understand the terrorists’ pattern of movement and “how to be able to counter them should they want to strike or spring any surprise”.

The idea 'may be' for the BH guys to see this report and then attempt to come out/relocate from their bunkers. The military is not stupid as many of us assume.

We've heard this kind of news many times. Rescue them and put an end to this saga and shame the likes of obj that said Nigerians should forget about them

They already snitched on themselves. Hiding and changing of location things for Boko boys.

I understand the idea of trying to force ur enemy into making a mistake, but don't u think that if there are still chibok girls out there their lives could be in "fatal" danger if at all bh decides to relocate with them as well and the nigerian military decides to engage them.

Super Story!

I don't have Intel on the whereabout of chibok girls - Buhari

Chibok girls are gone forever, anyone telling you otherwise is lying - Obasanjo

We have identified possible locations of chibok girls - Nigeria Air force (said same before)

Bring back our girls - OBY & co.

Bewildered but hoping chibok girls will return - Nigerians

Discordant tunes whilst the cycle continues We hope not but time will tell.

This boko haram stuff is something else, we're tired of hearing plenty stories or analysis we need to see action. In fact I'm beginning to believe that this boko haram is a political stuff gone bad #bring back our girls

God help those girls (women). Their lives would have been completely changed.

So they think BH boys will be foolish enough to kept those girls in one location

Here comes another propaganda.

Besides, is the military so foolish to reveal their every move?

They have been fighting an ill trained army, yet they can't come out victorious. Its so shameful, especially when our military keeps admitting they have the weaponry.

Except this is a calculated effort to get BH to panic and attempt a migration, I don't see the point of reporting this.

Lol.. They wan rescue them technically through media Abi..... Lol.. Dz new media govt.... D news should be out when the girls are rescued... E.g US army did not disclose that they knew Osama's location until the deed was done...

indirectly telling bokoharam to relocate d girls.....
Nigeria army are bokoharams
