Rep: We have idea where Abducted Dapchi Girls Are
Security agents searching for the 110 abducted Dapchi schoolgirls got a clue yesterday.
A member of the House of Representatives said the girls were still within Yobe State.
Rep Goni Bukar, representing Bursari/Yunusari/Gaidam Federal Constituency, told the Nation in Damaturu, the state capital, that the girls are in Bulabulin, Yunusari Local Government.
“The girls are within Yobe. We have an idea that they are in Bulabulin, Yunusari Local Government. The military is aware that Boko Haram has been in that place for over four years. They live in that place like their own city,” Bukar said.
Speaking on the efforts of the military in the search for the girls, Bukar said: “I cannot blame the military because I am speaking with those that are carrying out the operation. We have been speaking and they are telling me everything that they are doing; so, I cannot say I will blame anybody in the military. They are doing everything but I think they need to improve in their search so as to rescue those girls.”
“This issue is beyond the military that we have in Yobe … It is not the issue of sending 10 policemen or 20 soldiers. It is a matter of commitment. That is what we need. If they like, let them give me the uniform and I will wear it and go and show them the place. Even the day of the incident, the chairman, member, House of Assembly and I went to Gumsa because we had information that three of the girls died along the way and they were thrown away but it was wrong information.”
The Defence Headquarters could not be reached for comment last night.
The Forum of parents of the missing girls is planning to stage a grand occupation of Damaturu, the Yobe State capital, to press the government to intensify efforts in rescuing their daughters, but are being financially constrained.
Manzo said: “We are going ahead with our plan to come to Damaturu despite our financial difficulties. We need to mobilise people to carry out our plan to visit Damaturu. But so far, all the monies we have gathered as a group is going into the prayers that we are organizing for the safe return of our daughters.”
There have been prayers for the release of the 110 abducted pupils.
