It’s getting close to three months since more than 200 girls were
abducted from their school in Chibok, Borno, by Boko Haram and they are
yet to be found.
Senator Khalifa Ahmed Zanna of Borno Central, who spoke in a recent
interview with SaharaTV about the state of the missing Chibok girls,
conspiracy theories surrounding Boko Haram, the ramifications of the
group’s terrorism and other issues, disclosed that the girls are being
ra.ped and the terrorists are filming it and releasing the video for the
public to see.
He said though he didn’t see the video himself, but someone who did
narrated to him, saying after ra.ping the girls, they shoot them. He
described a scene where a young girl after being ra.ped was on her knees
begging her attacker to be patient and not kill her yet.
Zanna said: “Somebody told me that they were shown being ra.ped, and
in turn, it is the girl who was ra.ped that came out kneeling down and
begging the man to be patient. Do you know the reason why? They said
when they ra.pe them they shoot them. Therefore the girl after being
ra.ped, she curled down to the man, kneeling down and begging him to
please be patient.”
The senator explained that the deadly sect are now out of funds and
are not getting enough food, so they are going from one village to the
other, to loot the little the villagers have, while adding that they do
not even have any opportunity of getting food anymore as the villagers
have moved into cities or neighboring countries.
The senator, who feels the Nigerian Federal Government and military
are not doing enough, urged President Jonathan to change his priorities,
saying, “It is not this presidency that he should look at,” said the
senator, “but let him look at the future of Nigeria, and the future of
Nigerians.”
Earlier in May, the lawmaker had said he won’t tell where the
abducted girls are being kept again because he had told the Federal
Government where they are likely being kept before Boko Haram released a
video showing the girls in an unidentified area.
