Former military head of state and President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, has disclosed
that some of the school girls abducted in Chibok, Borno state by Boko haram
sect in April 2014 may never return to their family. He also claimed he could
reach out to the more than 200 schoolgirls, but regretted that the federal
government had yet to give him the green light to act.
Obasanjo who stated this on Thursday in an interview on the
Hausa Service of the British
Broadcasting
Corporation (BBC), added that the insurgents might free those
found to be pregnant or have given
birth.
“I believe that some
of them will never return. We will still be hearing about them many years from
now. Some will give birth, but if they cannot take care of them in the forest,
they may be released.” He said
The former president said the terror group might release
some of the girls that might be pregnant and finding it difficult to cater for
the babies in the forest. Obasanjo however said that the girls might have been
divided into groups and not likely to be at the same location.
