JUST IN: Fresh Details Uncovered About Yobe Schoolgirls Abduction

Aisha Wakil, better known as “Mama Boko Haram”, has received a personal access to information about the abduction of Dapchi schoolgirls from the faction of the insurgent Boko Haram said to be responsible for the attack.

The Musab al-Barnawi faction of the Boko Haram sect is suspected of being behind the kidnap of the 110 girls.

Speaking with journalists, Wakil said the faction contacted her on Thursday to confirm that the girls were in its custody.

Wakil was a member of the Dialogue and Peaceful Resolution of Security Challenges Committee in the northern region set up by former President Goodluck Jonathan.

She added that the abductors confirmed to her that the girls were safe, healthy and in good condition.

Wakil called on the abductors to release the girls to enable them to be reunited with their families.

Wakil, who is said to have communication links with Boko Haram and respected by some leaders of the sect, declared that she was ready to sacrifice her life to rescue the girls.

“They are even the ones that called me, and said Mama we heard what you have said and told me that they are with the girls and they are going to release them.

“I begged of them and said please let this not be another 1,000-plus days of Chibok girls, and they laughed and
said no.

“I asked them where I can come and stay with them (girls) for two days, but they did not say anything”, she disclosed.
