Chibok: Aggrieved mother identifies daughter on video of abducted girls



Few day after its release, a mother of one of the abducted Chibok schoolgirl has identified her daughter in a video posted by Islamist sect, Boko Haram, which showed dozens of girls in captivity, a school leader said on Tuesday.
SHOWBIZPLUSng gathered that the mother watched the video on television on Monday evening and spotted her daughter among the girls sitting on the ground and wearing veils, said Dumoma Mpur, parent-teachers association chairman at Government Secondary School in Chibok, Borno State.

The leader of rebel group, Abubakar Shekau, issued the video on Monday offering to release more than 200 schoolgirls, who were kidnapped from the school in a raid on April 14, in exchange for prisoners held by the government. It was not immediately apparent when the video of the girls was filmed.
“The video got parents apprehensive again after watching it but the various steps taken by the governments and the coming of the foreign troops is boosting our spirit, even though I have not seen the any one soldier in Chibok yet,” Mpur told Reuters by telephone.
The Nigerian government said it was exploring all options in its effort to rescue the girls. The United States and Britain have sent experts to help with the search.
