Boko Haram Denies Ceasefire, Says Chibok Girls Are Already Married Off

 

 Boko Haram have denied that they had agreed to a ceasefire in a new video obtained yesterday by AFP, describing the Nigerian government claims as a lie and apparently ruling out future talks.

The group’s leader, Abubakar Shekau, also claimed the 219 schoolgirls kidnapped from the remote northeast town of Chibok, in Borno state, in April had converted to Islam and been married off.

The video comes after a surprise Nigerian military and presidency announcement on October 17 that a deal had been reached with the militants to end hostilities.

A senior presidential aide to Goodluck Jonathan also said agreement had been reached to free the schoolgirls, whose abduction sparked global anger and demands for their release.CONTINUE READING...

Audu Ogbeh, a national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has today clarified his statement and apologized to the leadership of the #BringBackOurGirls movement for any discomfort he may have caused the movement.

In a statement signed by Ogeh, OFR, he said he decided to clarify himself after he was wrongly quoted in certain circles. “I feel obliged to let you know that my statement at our function last week was not intended to paint your group as an APC sub-group. This is because, from what we now know, less than two per cent of the group are our party members, but members we value highly.

“The rest of you are not and may not even belong to any political association whatsoever. This is not to say that you have no right to be if you choose to,” he said. CONTINUE READING....
