Maiduguri - Nigerian troops rescued
nearly 300 girls and women during an
offensive on Tuesday against Boko
Haram militants in the northeastern
Sambisa Forest, the military said, but
they did not include any of the
schoolgirls kidnapped from Chibok a
year ago.
The army announced the rescue on
Twitter and said it was screening and
interviewing the abducted girls and
women.
Troops destroyed and cleared four
militant camps and rescued 200
abducted girls and 93 women "but they
are not the Chibok girls," army
spokesperson Colonel Sani Usman told
The Associated Press.
Nearly 300 schoolgirls were kidnapped
from the north-eastern town of Chibok
by the Islamic extremist group Boko
Haram in April 2014. The militants took
the schoolgirls in trucks into the
Sambisa Forest. Dozens escaped, but
219 remain missing.
#BringBackOurGirls
The plight of the schoolgirls, who have
become known as "the Chibok girls,"
aroused international outrage and a
campaign for their release under the
hashtag #BringBackOurGirls.
Their kidnapping brought Boko Haram
to the attention of the world, with even
US first lady Michelle Obama becoming
involved as she tweeted a photograph
of herself holding the campaign sign.
Boko Haram has kidnapped an
unknown number of girls, women and
young men to be used as sex slaves
and fighters. Many have escaped or
been released as Boko Haram has fled
a multinational offensive that began at
the end of January.
A military source who was in Sambisa
told The Associated Press that some of
the women rescued on Tuesday fought
back, and that Boko Haram was using
armed women as human shields,
putting them as their first line of
defence.
The Nigerian troops managed to
subdue them and rounded them all up,
and some said they were forced to fight
for Boko Haram, said the source, who
spoke on condition of anonymity
because he was not authorised to
speak to the media.
Boko Haram also has used girls and
women as suicide bombers, sending
them into crowded market places and
elsewhere.
Offensive
A month ago the Nigerian military
began pounding the Sambisa Forest in
air raids, an assault they said earlier
they had been avoiding for fear of
killing the Chibok schoolgirls, or
inciting their captors to kill them.
Two weeks ago, counterinsurgency
spokesperson Mike Omeri said a
multinational offensive that began at
the end of January had driven Boko
Haram from all major towns in the
northeast and that Nigerian forces were
concentrating on the Islamic militant
stronghold in the Sambisa Forest.
Omeri said the military believed that
the Chibok girls might be held there.
In Chibok, community leader Pogu
Bitrus said townspeople were
desperately trying to verify the identity
of the freed girls and women. He said
the town had learned of the rescue
through social media, not from the
military.
"We are trying to verify if there are
Chibok girls among them. We are
working hard to verify... All we know is
this number have been rescued," he
said.
His comments reflected a distrust of
the military, which has published many
misstatements about the girls and once
even claimed to have rescued some,
though that proved to be untrue.
Forced to convert, marry
Unconfirmed reports over the past year
had indicated the girls were broken up
into smaller groups and had been
forced to convert to Islam and that
some were "married" off to their
captors. Some witnesses said they saw
the girls being ferried by canoe across
Lake Chad and into neighbouring
Cameroon.
Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau
published a video in which he
threatened to sell the girls as slaves.
A Muslim leader who had tried to
negotiate their release told the AP that
at least three had died — from a snake
bite, dysentery and malaria.
But the military has reported that none
of the girls they found as they freed
towns were the Chibok girls, indicating
Boko Haram fighters might have held
on to their most famous assets and
taken them with them when they
retreated to the Sambisa Forest, a
national game reserve.
Unknown hundreds of people have been
killed as the extremists retreated,
according to reports from recaptured
towns.
Atrocity
On Monday, a local government
committee reported the burial of
hundreds of skeletons of children,
women and men believed killed by
Boko Haram in Damasak, a town on the
border with Niger.
"I know that there was a large-scale
atrocity, but I cannot tell you the
precise number of dead bodies,"
Senator-elect Abubakar Kyari told
reporters in Maiduguri, the Borno state
capital 180km southeast of Damasak.
Damasak was recaptured by troops
from Chad and Niger last month and
had been occupied by the Islamic
extremists since November.
