Boko Haram fails to obey stated date to release kidnapped Chibok girls

The whole world have being waiting for this...According to report,the girls were to be released on Monday 20th. But nothin happened......Hassan Tukur, a close adviser to Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan, and Danladi Ahmadu, who calls himself the secretary-general of Boko Haram, have told VOA’s Hausa-language service that the girls are to be released Monday in Chad.

Ahmadu said the other girls are alive and “in good condition and unharmed.”

The two sides had reached the agreement Friday October 17th at talks in Saudi Arabia that involved Chadian President Idriss Deby and high-level officials from Cameroon.

The VOA sources say the girls will be handed over to Chadian President Deby for transfer to Nigerian authorities.

They also say Nigerian and Boko Haram delegates will meet in the Chadian capital, N’Djamena, to discuss Boko Haram’s demands, such as the release of imprisoned militants.

 Earlier, Nigeria’s chief of defense staff, General Alex Badeh, issued an order to all military chiefs, telling them “to comply with the cease-fire agreement between Nigeria and Boko Haram in all theaters of operations.”

The cease-fire marks a possible end a five-year insurgency in which several thousand Nigerians have been killed.
