in the community. Ali said although government had not formally
informed the community of the planned released of
the girls, they were happy with the plan. “The government has not informed us about the

news in the media that the insurgents were willing
to release the girls under a ceasefire with the
government,” he said. Ali said that the community was excited by the
media report. “We began to develop interest in the issue when
the media carried the news but we were
disappointed that nothing has happened yet. “Up till this moment nobody has contacted us to say
what actually happened. “Even the local government chairman has no
information about the issue, because I spoke with
him in the morning,” he said. Ali said that the community had resorted to prayers
on the issue. “We have taken our problem to our creator
because all human efforts
have failed in rescuing our children. “It is only God that has the power to help rescue
our girls and we believe he will help us,” he said.
