Boko Haram: Nigerian Govt Declares Ahmed Salkida, 2 Others Wanted

The Nigerian Army has declared the trio of Ahmed Salkida , Ahmed U. Bolori and Aisha Wakil wanted in connection with the new release of a Chibok Girls video by Boko Haram.

A statement signed by Colonel Sani K. Usman, Acting Director, Army Public Relations, said the trio have been declared wanted because they are in possession of information on the conditions and the exact location of schoolgirls kidnapped by Boko Haram from Government Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, in 2014.

"We are relying on the relevant laws of the land and in particular the Terrorism Prevention Act 2011 (as amended), where Nigerians could be punished for failure to disclose information about terrorists or terrorist activities.

"This becomes necessary as a result of their link with the last two videos released by Boko Haram terrorists and other findings of our preliminary investigations."

"They must, therefore, come forward and tell us where the group is keeping the Chibok Girls and other abducted persons to enable us to rescue them," the statement said.

Salkida is one of Nigeria's notable journalist who has steadily reported on boko haram insurgency since its inception.
