Dreaded Boko Haram insurgents have released the video of the five “commanders” who were swapped by the Nigerian authorities on the 6th of May in exchange for 82 Chibok schools girls.
All five terrorists shown in the 6 minutes 30 seconds video dressed in full military fatigues, alighted from a Hilux vehicle mounted with a machine gun.
According to Daily Trust, one of the men claimed he was Abu Dardaa, saying he was arrested by Nigerian security forces in Gombe State, taken into custody alongside many of his “brethren” but set free for the exchange of the Chibok girls.
A credible source said all the five could not be said to be “commanders in the true sense of the matter.”
According to him,
Responding to the video, spokesman of the Nigerian Army, Brigadier General Sani Usman Kukasheka has dismissed the video as a mere propaganda, whil confirming that indeed one of the men featured in it was part of the exchange programme with the Chibok girls.
A statement issued on Saturday by the Army, said the threats issued by the terrorist should not be taken seriously as it is merely an attempt to seek relevance and attention as he has lost touch with realities on ground after years of incaceration.
“As you are all aware, he was a direct beneficiary of the process that led to the release of 82 of the abducted girls, and does not have a say or capacity to do anything, therefore his threats should be ignored,” Usman said.
While dimissing the threats, Usman said, “We would like to assure the public that the Nigerian Army is totally committed to the Federal Government’s determined efforts of rescuing all abducted persons and peace in the country.”
