The Chairman of Chibok Community, Tsambido Abana has revealed that the suspected female suicide bomber that was arrested in Cameroon last week was not from their community, according to an information made available to them by the Federal Government.
The Chairman told Punch Newspaper that the suspect had never attended a conventional school, noting that the minor, who does not speak English, was believed to be from Bama area of Borno State.
He was asked if his group had seen the girl’s picture, Abana said that it was not released to him or his community members, adding that the picture was given to Aisha Oyebode of Murtala Muhammed Foundation for verification.
He said he would not approach the foundation for the picture, noting that it was clear that the girl was not from Chibok, based on the information released by the government.
“I won’t bother to go and see the picture, because from the information given by the government, it is apparent that the girl is not from Chibok. Going to see the picture would create an unnecessary tension and expectation among the Chibok parents whose daughters are missing,” he said.
