The Chief of Defence Staff Maj.-Gen. Lucky Irabor, has debunked the news that some Chibok girls were released during clearance operation in the Northeast.
General Irabor denied the claim while interacting with newsmen during his Operational visit to the Theatre Command of Operation Lafiya Dole in Maiduguri on Sunday.
He said that the Chibok girls were not in the Military’s custody. “We do not have any of the Chibok girls in our custody, so if they are not with us we have nothing to confirm again.
General Irabor noted that “It was the desire of the military the get the Chibok girls back safely and if our operations have helped those said to have escaped, I think we are glad.” Irabor added.
