Boko Haram May Release Chibok Schoolgirls Who Are Pregnant, Says Obasanjo
The retired army general said in an interview on the Hausa Service of the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), monitored in Kaduna, that the sect may release some of the schoolgirls who might be pregnant because it would be finding it difficult to care them in the forest.
"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.
Obasanjo maintained that he had communications links with the violent terrorist group, Boko Haram, and he regretted that the Federal Government is yet to give him an approval to begin negotiations with the sect over the abduction of the schoolgirls.
The former president also expressed fears that the abducted girls may never return home, recanting fears that the girls may have been divided into groups and are not likely to be at the same location.
Boko Haram had on the morning of April 14, 2014 invaded Girls Secondary School, Chibok in Borno State and abducted over 200 schoolgirls who remain in captivity till today except for about 50 who escaped or were set free by the group.
