"I Will Sell Them," Boko Haram Leader Says Of Kidnapped Nigerian Girls


Shocking reports have emerged that a man claiming to be Boko Haram’s leader, Abubakar Shekau, has allegedly released a video, in which he is threatening to sell the abducted Chibok school girls.

According to CNN he made the following statement :
“I abducted your girls. I will sell them in the market, by Allah…There is a market for selling humans. Allah says I should sell. He commands me to sell. I will sell women. I sell women.”


Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan, second from left, stands on the back of a vehicle after being sworn-in as President during a ceremony in the capital of Abuja on May 29, 2011. In December 2011, Jonathan declared a state of emergency in parts of the country afflicted by violence from the militant Islamist group.
The unbelievable threat means the girls' parents worst fears could be realised.  Many parents have been avoiding speaking to the media for fear their daughters may be singled out for reprisals.


"Wherever these girls are, we'll get them out," Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan vowed on Sunday.
