BOKO HARAM: FG DENIES KNOWLEDGE OF ESCAPED 63 WOMEN

The federal government yesterday denied knowledge of the escape of 63 women out of 68 reportedly abducted two weeks ago from three villages around Chibok by Boko Haram members.

The coordinator of the National Information Centre, Mr Mike Omeri, stated this while briefing journalists on government’s efforts in the mission to rescue the abducted Chibok girls.

He said, “We are communicating with our people over there to verify this. We still have not been able to verify actually what happened and the figures involved and we don’t want to speculate and say things without confirmation.”

The commission had earlier denied knowledge of the abduction of 60 women and girls who were said to have been abducted in villages within Borno State by gunmen suspected to be Boko Haram members.

Omeri said, “Landlords must check clearly where their tenants are coming from because, of late, people with dubious character and intentions have moved to new areas and most of the people moving to these areas are the people we are actually looking for. So, know your tenants as you welcome them into your premises,” he advised.
