Terror group, Boko Haram has given the release from custody of the key suspect in the production of Improvised Explosive Devices as their condition for the release of the Chibok Girls.
President Muhammadu Buhari disclosed this in France on Tuesday during a meeting with the Nigerian community.
He said ; “They wanted us to release one of their leaders who is a strategic person in developing and making IEDs which have been causing a lot of havoc in the country by blowing up people in churches, mosques, market places, motor parks and other places.
“But it is very important that if we are going to talk to anybody,we have to know how much he is worth.
“Let them bring all the girls and then, we will be prepared to negotiate. I will allow them to come back to Nigeria or to be absorbed into the community. We have to be very careful; the concern we have for the Chibok girls, one can only imagine if they got a daughter there between 14 and 18 years and for more than one and a half years, a lot of the parents who have died would rather see the graves of their daughters rather than the condition they imagine they were in.
“This has drawn a lot of sympathy throughout the world; that is why this government is getting very hard in negotiating and getting the balance of those who are alive.”
The president assured Nigerians that his government was doing everything possible to secure the release of the Chibok girls.
