We Lack Capacity, Technology To Locate Chibok Girls  — Mil

The Nigeria Military has stated that it is unaware of the whereabouts of the Chibok girls taken by Boko Haram insurgents in 2014 as it lacks the capacity or technology to trace them.

The comment was made by the Director of Defence Media Operation, Major-General Musa Danmadami while addressing members of the press in Abuja on Thursday.

According to Danmadami, locating the Chibok girls is a challenge as the military cannot have the capacity or technology to know their precise location.

“Precisely on the Chibok girls, the Chibok girls are just like any other human beings like us here; you cannot see anybody walking and just identify that this is a Chibok girl.

“There’s no way the military can have the capacity or technology to know that precisely this is where the Chibok girls are.

“It’s quite some time now that these girls have been missing or abducted.

“So, now because of the intensity of operations, most of them are escaping from the terrorists and coming out.

“It’s only when they come out that we can now identify that this is one of the abducted Chibok girls.

“Our troops are conducting operations daily in Sambisa forest and are recovering weapons and ammunition.

“Majority of the weapons displayed for the Nigerians to see were recovered from Sambisa forest,” he said.
