The Nigerian Army has declared the trio of Ahmed Salkida (Ambassador), Ahmed U. Bolori and Aisha Wakil wanted. According to a statement signed by Colonel Sani K. Usman, Acting Director, Army Public Relations, the trio have been declared wanted because they are in possession of information on the conditions and the exact location of schoolgirls kidnapped by Boko Haram from Government Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, in 2014. The Army said its action is based on relevant laws.




"We are relying on the relevant laws of the land and in particular the Terrorism Prevention Act 2011 (as amended), where Nigerians could be punished for failure to disclose information about terrorists or terrorist activities.


"This becomes necessary as a result of their link with the last two videos released by Boko Haram terrorists and other findings of our preliminary investigations," the statement said.
There Army added that it is certain that the wanted persons have links with Boko Haram terrorists and have contact with them.


"They must, therefore, come forward and tell us where the group is keeping the Chibok Girls and other abducted persons to enable us to rescue them," the statement added.


The Army called on the general public to provide information on the whereabouts of the wanted persons, adding that it is working with other security agencies for their arrest if they fail to turn up. Mr. Salkida is a notable Nigerian journalist who has remained a credible source of information about Boko Haram activities. He has occasionally acted as a negotiator between the Nigerian government and Boko Haram militants betfore going on exile.

Mr. Salkida has remained active from exile providing up to date information and free advice on Boko Haram activities.

The so called ahmed salkida knows too much about this boko haram..i think it's high time he should be taken in for questioning...he's always the one having genuine info about them..

sinkhole:
Nigeria system is in a mess! They want Salkida to disclose his source and then they will leak that to the BH and Salkida will be murdered by BH, then we will have no more direct info from BH
Why can't they just act on the info that Salkida provides and do their job instead of harrasing innocent person up and down?

You would sit down in your room, create a lie and incredibly believe the same lie.

How do you know the guy is innocent?

Are you a member of military intelligence or NSA?

Why do people on nairaland always assume they know better than the people on the field practising their chosen vocation?

sinkhole:
OK, General rusher14, we can see the result of your work with Shekau being killed 10times and still alive today, Chibok girls never ever found!

RZArecta:
under Gej, the APC saw Ahmed Salkida as a hero but now under their govt he's a wanted man. They should kwantinu
