Concerns are rapidly emerging that the dreaded Boko Haram group is using the 220 girls it abducted in Chibok last April as suicide bombers.
The delay in freeing the over 200 girls seized from Government Secondary School, Chibok, in Borno State, may have exposed them to radicalisation by their captors, who are now using them for suicide bombings.
LeadershipNG also reported that a female suicide bomber was caught close to a primary school at Dinshe, Kano State, trying to detonate her explosives.
Serial attacks carried out by the female suicide bombers in the vast Northern part of Nigeria last week alone lent credence to this claim.
It would be recalled that former education minister Oby Ezekwesili urged the Nigerian government not to “move on,” as the Chibok girls may be “indoctrinated or coerced into being used as suicide bombers”.
“This new trend and serial pattern of female suicide bombers surely should particularly worry us,” she said.
“Female suicide bombers are again and again becoming the trend and our Chibok girls are still in the enemy’s den. It worries me stiff. Are we thinking? Our Chibok girls really need to be rescued from the clutches of evil.”
The Human Rights Writers Association (HURIWA) urged the government to investigate the identity of the female suicide bombers.
“In the event that these female suicide bombers are identified to have been the same kidnapped girls, then the government should immediately deploy all resources and strategies to bring to an end, once and for all, this shameful scenario, since the military have repeatedly stated that they are aware of the whereabouts of the kidnaped Chibok girls,” the organisation said.
However, it is a shame and rather unfortunate that government wasted precious time in rescuing the girls either through negotiation with Boko Haram or other means possible.
How do you expect 220 abducted innocent girls kept and indoctrinated by the ferociously cold-blooded sect for over 224 days to come out the same??

I'm not concluding that the suicide bombers are the chibok girls, its a possibility though but bros those little students wey boko haram kill before the kidnap na propaganda? the many young men & women wey dem de kidnap occasionally to use as replacement for their fallen ones nko? - ( or u dont know?) na propaganda? abi bcos those ones aren't students frm thesame school? why do u think they continue to grow in number despite persistent attacks by the army? If there was no kidnap what happnd to the girls? the kind hearted terrorists burnt down their school, killed the soldiers on guard (or u dont know ? )& let the girls go free? I dont think so. Or maybe the girls were all killed? I no watch dat one 4 news o. Bros we always try to use conspiracy theories- (particularly we Africans) to explain every event that occurs but 99.9% of the times those theories never add up no matter how convincing they are. Guy just like they say of HIV Boko haram & their activities are real too, if u doubt travel go north guy. many have been killed & kidnapped & if nothing changes many more will be, perhaps even today- did you say God forbid, it is well? Well I said if nothing changes. u're one of the few here wey de make sense so try think am bros.
