NIGERIAN MILITARY SIGHTS MISSING GIRLS IN BOKO HARAM CAMPS

The Special Forces from the Army's 7th Division said they have sighted three camps where boko haram has been hiding the missing girls in the North of Kukawa at the Western corridors of the Lake Chad.

“It has been a most difficult but heroic breakthrough,” one senior military official said in Abuja.

Another senior commander from the Army’s 7th Division, the special military formation created to deal with terrorism in the Northeast supported the claims made by the first commander that they have made a wonderful discovery .

This breakthrough has come at a very integral moment where the Nigerian military has been severely criticised over her inability to recover the abducted girls since their kidnapping a month ago.

A rescue mission is going to be difficult when you're dealing with people like this.
