FG Sends Parents Of Kidnapped Chibok Girls To Cameroon by ceometromedia: 9:47pm On Mar 26, 2016
The Nigerian government is wasting no time in sending parents from the Chibok community of northeast Nigeria to neighbouring Cameroon to verify whether a suspected female suicide bomber is one of the schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram nearly two years ago.

And the need for urgency is further underscored by the fact that the would be bomber speaks English, Kanuri and Hausa and told interrogators she was attending school in Chibok before she was captured, according to local newspaper, L’oeil du Sahel.

Garba Shehu, spokesperson for Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari, said the Nigerian High Commissioner in Cameroon, Hadiza Mustapha, has been in contact with Cameroonian authorities who have shown a willingness to assist the Nigerian government.

The abduction of about 270 school girls by Islamic militants from a school in Chibok on April 14, 2014, sparked international outrage and a campaign #bringbackourgirls. While about 50 of the girls managed to escape, 219 of these girls remain missing.

Military and local government sources on Friday reported that one of two girls arrested in northern Cameroon carrying explosives claimed to be one of the missing Chibok schoolgirls.

The girls were arrested after being stopped by local self-defence forces in Limani near the border with Nigeria that has been 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,” Shehu told the Thomson Reuters Foundation in a telephone interview in Abuja on Saturday.

Shehu said the government was keen to ascertain the girl’s identity so she can be brought back to Nigeria and possibly assist the government in investigations regarding the fate and whereabouts of the other missing Chibok girls.

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 group’s women leader, whose 16-year-old daughter Rifkatu is among the missing.

The trip is being arranged by the government in partnership with the Murtala Muhammed Foundation in Nigeria, a non-government organisation which has been supporting the parents association and has offered to partly sponsor the trip to avoid any delays.

“If it is true, we are very happy about it. If we see her with our eyes, we will know where our girls are,” Galang told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.

Shehu said the two girls will be brought by the Cameroonian government to Douala, the country’s largest city, on Monday for further checks into their identities.

Former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan was criticized for his slow reaction to the Chibok abductions, seen by many as indicative of his response to Boko Haram, which at its strongest held large swathes of northeastern Nigeria.

Muhammadu Buhari, who defeated Jonathan in a 2015 election, ordered a new investigation into the kidnappings in January.

The lives of these young ladies have been used to play alot of politicking...
A million lies & conspiracy associated with this Chibok girls issue.
In the beginning some claimed it was a propaganda.
Next they claimed it was scam.
Soon it was reavealed that they shared the money that is supposed to be used to Arm the finders.
It became a global issue.
It led to the international distrust of the past adminstration.
It was among the viable tools used to bring down the past government.
It became a campaign strong point.
It was amongst the manifesto.
It was claimed that they would be rescued soon.
I heard rumours that they have been rescued.
Now they are in Cameroon (or believed to be).

Irrespective of who you supported or who you voted...
These are people's family, someone's daughter, someone's sister...
Seriously #bringbackourgirl
