Switzerland, Red Cross, Borno Lawyer Negotiated Release Of Chibok Girls by DONSMITH123(op):
Our correspondents

The government of Switzerland, the Red Cross and a Borno State-based lawyer helped to negotiate the release of the 21 Chibok girls, it has been gathered.

The Swiss government on Thursday said its involvement in the deal to swap Boko Haram terrorists for the release of the 21 Chibok girls was at the instance of the Federal Government.

According to the United Kingdom’s International Business Times, Switzerland conducted the negotiations, which included the International Red Cross Committee between Nigeria and the terrorists leading to the release of the girls.


“At the request of the Nigerian government, Switzerland facilitated contacts between representatives of the Nigerian government and intermediaries of Boko Haram on the release of the Chibok girls,” a spokesman for the Swiss Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Pierre-Alain Eltschinger, told IBTimes.

“Switzerland’s engagement in this operation was guided by the principles of neutrality and non-interference. The role that the Nigerian government has asked Switzerland to play is fulfilled.

“Switzerland welcomes the release of 21 Chibok Girls and calls for the liberation of all the remaining girls as soon as possible.”


The International Committee of the Red Cross also confirmed its participation in the negotiation to release the girls.

“Today we transferred 21 of the Chibok girls and handed them to the Nigerian government authorities, as a neutral intermediary.

“We cannot provide any further comment at this stage in the best interest of the girls concerned,” the ICRC stated on Thursday on its Twitter handle.
