Chibok parent alleges top staff of school moved their children before Boko Haram invasion

Some parents of the abducted Chibok schoolgirls say they believe there is cover up in the events that occurred before the abduction of their daughters by the Boko Haram sect.

One of the parents of the girls, Bulama Jonah told Leadership Newspaper that some top staffers of Government Secondary School, Chibok, moved their wives and daughters out of the school premises less than 24 hours before the terrorists visited Chibok on the night of April 14.

“We still believe that there was an internal collaboration in the abduction of our daughters by the Boko Haram gunmen, because we have correct information that some of the teachers, who are very senior in the school, managed to move their own daughters and family out of the school premises before the attack”, he said.

“That is why we are insisting that government must provide our daughters and we would not take it lightly if they don’t produce our girls for us.

“The girls were in their custody, because school premises belong to government; and we believe they were aware of the attack but failed to provide security for them”.

He lamented that: “The (state) government can not pretend to us that they were not aware of the attack on Chibok that led to the abduction of our daughters”.

Jonah wondered why it took several weeks before the federal government started to act on the incident when it became an international issue.
