In New Video, Women Kidnapped By Boko Haram Beg Nigerian Govt To Negotiate Their by Henrychiz(m): 7:05am On Jul 18, 2017
Boko Haram on Monday released a video showing some women abducted by the insurgents last month.
In the video, published by Sahara Reporters, the women pleaded with the Nigerian government to negotiate with the terrorists for their release.
The women are believed to be among 14 others abducted when the gunmen ambushed a convoy travelling under military escort along the Biu road in Borno State.
The 4:35 minutes video footage featured a hooded Boko Haram member introducing the women and thereafter asked two of them to deliver their message to the Nigerian government.
The video showed about 10 of the women who appeared traumatised but well kept.
It could be recalled that a large convoy travelling from Maiduguri to Damboa under a military escort was ambushed on June 20 by Boko Haram gunmen some 31 kilometres from Maiduguri.
Some of the travellers, including a police officer and a soldier were killed in the ambush.
Although the Borno State Police Command confirmed the attack, it refused to state the number of those taken away by the attackers.
A few days after the ambush, Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau, released a short video where he claimed that his fighters had seized more than a dozen women and “senior police officers” in the ambush. Mr Shekau said the abducted women had become his “slaves”.
The release of Monday’s video came on the same day elders of Askira Uba Local Government Area of Borno State held a press conference in Maiduguri to urge the Nigerian government to secure the release of 14 abducted women from their community.
The elders said the women were seized even though they were travelling in a police vehicle to attend a ceremony.
The abducted women are relatives of a deceased police woman whose corpse was being conveyed for burial when their convoy was attacked.
The elders lamented “the disturbing silence of the government” over the fate of the missing women.
In the Boko Haram video footage, one of the abducted women who introduced herself as Deborah Philemon, said their captors had been very nice to them, although it appeared she had been rehearsed by her captors for the speech.
“My name is Deborah Philemon. What I want to tell the people of Nigeria is that in all honesty, you (Boko Haram) have been taking good care of us since the time you picked us to this place, you have been providing care to those that were wounded.
“We have never been hungry for a single day; you give us water and all that we need to feed with. The government of Nigeria should not deny that we have been kidnapped; we are kidnapped and here we are. We thank you people that have been taking good care of us.”
After the speech by Mrs Philemon, some of the women were shown sobbing as the Boko Haram gunman standing in front of them directed the next woman to make her speech.
