How Boko Haram Used Us For Suicide Mission - Chibok School Girl by Michaeluzomam(m): 8:06am On Mar 27, 2016
Authorities in Cameroon and Nigeria are investigating a claim from a would-be suicide
bomber that she
was one of a group
of schoolgirls
abducted in 2014.


The Nigerian government is sending parents to Cameroon to attempt to identify the girl.

She told investigators
in Cameroon she was
one of 270 kidnapped
in Chibok by jihadist
group Boko Haram.

The abductions sparked international outrage and the #bringbackourgirls social media campaign.

While about 50 of the
girls managed to
escape, 219 of these
girls remain missing.

They were taken by
the militants from the
Chibok community in
northeastern Nigeria.

On patrol with Nigerian
soldiers battling Boko
Haram Reuters news agency reported that one of two girls arrested in northern Cameroon on Friday carrying explosives claimed to be one of the missing Chibok girls.


The girls were arrested after being stopped by local self-defence forces in Limani near the border with Nigeria, the target of frequent
suicide bombings in
recent months.

"We hope that the
Chibok parents will be
able to identify the girl
and determine
whether she is indeed
one of their missing
students," Garba
Shehu, a spokesman
for Nigerian President
Muhammadu Buhari,
told the Thomson
Reuters Foundation.
Mr Shehu said the
government was
keen to ascertain the
girl's identity so she
could be brought back
to Nigeria and possibly
assist the
government in
investigating the
abductions.

He said the two
parents from Chibok
selected to embark on
the trip to Cameroon
are Yakubu Nkeki,
chairman of the
Chibok Abducted Girls
Movement, and Yana
Galang, the women's
leader in the group,
whose 16-year-old
daughter Rifkatu is
among the missing.

Former Nigerian
President Goodluck
Jonathan was
criticised for his slow
reaction to the Chibok
abductions. Mr Buhari,
his successor, ordered
a new investigation
into the kidnappings in
January.

Although Boko Haram
has been driven out
from most of the
areas it controlled in
north-eastern Nigeria,
it has continued to
carry out suicide
bombings and raids
into neighbouring
Cameroon, Chad and
Niger.

education - Boko

200 schoolgirls
Joined so-called Islamic State, now calls itself

Humanity is always too one sided; today they talk about this side too much, tommorrow it is too much about the other side! Nobody gives a damn about a man crying but when a woman cries, everybody show pity. So the whole Chibok mothers' thing is about wiping up sentiment!
