Following the abduction of several persons, including the female
students of Government Secondary School Chibok in Borno by Boko Haram terrorists
and failed appeals by the Federal Government for their unconditional release,
the Nigerian Army has declared three individuals wanted.
They are Ahmed Salkida, (Ambassador) Ahmed U. Bolori and Aisha Wakil.
Sakilda, a journalist, is believed to have direct contact with Boko
Haram factional leader, Abubakar Shekau.
Army spokesman, Col. Sani Usman, said the trio were wanted to provide
information on the conditions and the exact location of these girls.
A statement he signed further reads: “We are relying on the relevant
laws of the land and in particular the Terrorism Prevention Act 2011 (as
amended) where Nigerians could be punished for failure to disclose information
about terrorists or terrorists activities.
“This become necessary as a result of their link with the last two
videos released by Boko Haram Terrorists and other findings of our preliminary
investigations.
“There is no doubt that these individuals have links with Boko Haram
Terrorists and have contacts with them.
“They must therefore come forward and tell us where the group is
keeping the Chibok Girls and other abducted persons to enable us rescue them.
“We are therefore calling on all Nigerians and peace loving people to
give us useful information on their whereabouts. We are also liaising with
other security agencies for their arrest if they failed to turn up.”
