In spite of the recent successes recorded by the Nigerian troops in the war against Boko Haram insurgents, they are still yet to make any headway on the abducted Chibok girls.
Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Kenneth Minimah revealed that there was no news yet on the over 200 schoolgirls abducted in Chibok, Borno State, in April 2014.
Minimah made the disclosure on Tuesday, March 17, after emerging from a Security Council meeting presided over by President Goodluck Jonathan.
“There is no news on the Chibok girls for now. In all the liberated areas , we have also made enquiries but the truth is when the terrorists are running away, they also run with their families.”
“Those we have come in contact with have not made any comments suggesting that Chibok girls were there and taken away.”
“But we are optimistic that as they are losing the areas captured by them, we will get further details on that,” Minimah added.
