Chibok Girls "Buhari has not done enough" - Aisha Yesufu says

 

 Aisha Yesufu said the federal government had not done enough in rescuing 218 Chibok schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram terrorists.

Co-convener of the Bring Back Our Girls (BBOG) advocacy group, Aisha Yesufu has chided the federal government over its inability to secure the release of 218 schoolgirls who were abducted from the Government Secondary School, Chibok, Borno state in April, 2014.

Yesufu who spoke exclusively with Pulse correspondent in Abuja lauded the efforts of the Nigerian Army in northeast but stated that a lot more still needs to be done by the federal government.
She lamented the information gap between the government and Nigerians.
"Our sisters are there in Sambisa, they are waiting for this nation to rescue them and up till now they haven't," she said.
"I don't think government is doing enough. A lot has been done in the fight against insurgency but there is a whole lot that needs to be done that is not being done.
"Amina Ali, you remember was found, she is one of our 219 Chibok girls and that is how we have 218 in captivity and what are the informations she brought. How has the federal government used the information she provided?

 An anonymous member of the dreaded Boko haram sect spoke to Tobi Oladipo of BBC World radio today ,opening up on their activities and the condition of the Chibok girls who were abducted on April 14. Contrary to reports by a serving senator that they are being shot and raped, he says they are all living well and would be released if the government releases their jailed members...
"Yes we want the Nigerian government to release our members. As our leader Abubakar Shekau promised to the media, if today the government releases our members, tomorrow or the next day we promise you can see all of them sure. We would release them tomorrow or the next day.I am telling you a fact, they are in a state of amnesty. They don't have a problem. Some of them have belief in Islam, some of them say they would not convert to Islam but we didn't differentiate them, we treat them equally.....
