Two and a half years after more than 200 girls were kidnapped from a school in northeastern Nigeria, the government on Friday described for the first time the failed efforts to negotiate for their release.
Nigerian
officials revealed that talks had been underway since July 2015 between
the government and Boko Haram terrorists to gain the release of the girls taken from a school in Chibok. The talks began shortly after President Muhammadu Buhari took office.
Three
times the negotiations were derailed, in one instance at the last
minute even after the president agreed to free imprisoned Boko Haram
fighters, according to a government statement. Another time, talks failed because key members of Boko Haram’s negotiating team were killed.
