A man who described himself as a teacher/scholar inside
the Boko Haram camp today July 8th spoke anonymously
with Tobi Oladipo of BBC World radio service where he
stated that it's only the release of their imprisoned
members by the Federal Government that can make them
release the over 200 Chibok girls they abducted on April
14th at the Government Girls Secondary School in Chibok.
"Yes we want the Nigerian government to release our
members. As our leader Abubakar Shekau promised to
the media, if today the government releases our
members, tomorrow or the next day we promise you
can see all of them (the girls) sure. We would release
them tomorrow or the next day." he told BBC World
Radio.
Seaking further, the man said the abducted girls are in
good condition and are well catered for
"I am telling you a fact, they are in a state of amnesty.
They don't have a problem. Some of them have belief in
Islam, some of them say they would not convert to
Islam but we didn't differentiate them, we treat them
equally. They are healthy, feeding and all these. We
didn't differentiate between them at all, why because,
Allah commands us to do them equally. Some of them
say they would not come back to Islam, we ask them to
stay, no problem. There is no forcing in Islam but some
of them not Muslims are converting to Islam but we are
not differentiating them. If you see them now, you
would see they don't have any problem"he said
The man also said Boko Haram attacks anyone who gives
out information about them and their activities
"Under Islam, killing children and women is not
accepted you understand, but if they are fighting you,
then you must fight them but if they are not fighting
you, then it is not accepted weather they are Muslims
or non-Muslims. Do not fight them, it is not accepted
but if you bomb somewhere or make arrest somewhere,
it will affect them but killing children and women is not
accepted" he said
