Wakil said that the sect also hinted that the girls might be
released.
The human rights activist popularly called Mama Boko Haram on
account of her closeness to many of the sect members, on Friday said that the
Abu Musab Al-Barnawi faction called her on Thursday to confirm that it is
keeping the girls.
She added that the abductors told her that the girls were safe,
healthy and in good condition.
Wakil did not say how many of the girls are with the terrorists,
although the Federal Government put the number of the missing girls at 110.
According to her the sect called her following an earlier
interview she granted to PRNigeria in which she pleaded with the abductors to
release the girls to enable them to be reunited with their families.
She said in the interview that she was ready to sacrifice her
life to rescue the girls.
Wakil said , “ They were
even the ones that called me and said Mama we heard what you have said and told
me that they were with the girls and they were going to release them.
“I begged of them and said please let this not be another
1,000-plus days of Chibok girls and they laughed and said no.”
“I asked them where I can come and stay with them (girls) for
two days, but they did not say anything.
She added that “I can assure Nigerians that so far they are with
my son, Habib (Abu Musab Al-Barnawi) and his friends.
“Habib is a nice guy, he is a very nice boy. He will not harm
them, he will not touch them and he will not kill them.”
“He is going to listen to us and so far he indicated interest that
he loves peace. And I love them for that and believe what they said on this.”
“They
will definitely give us the girls. All I am begging Nigerians is to calm down
and be prayerful. Everything will be Over in God grace.”
