"Some of the Chibok Schoolgirls Will Never Return, Some Will Give Birth in Sambisa Forest!" - Obasanjo

Former President of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo has expressed fears that the more than 200 abducted schoolgirls, who were kidnapped about 2 months ago in Chibok while at school, might never return again. That instead, the terror group would release some of the girls that might be pregnant and finding it difficult to cater for their babies in the forest.

Punch reports that Obasanjo during an interview on the Hausa Service of the British Broadcasting Corporation said:

“I believe that some of them will never return. We will still be hearing about them many years from now. Some will give birth, but if they cannot take care of them in the forest, they may be released.”

Obasanjo, during the interview, also revealed that he has a communication link with Boko Haram, that he could reach out to the violent Islamic sect over the abduction of the schoolgirls, but regretted that the Federal Government is yet to give him the go ahead.
