Governor, Kashim Shettima has said that there is every possibility that the Chibok girls which were kidnapped by the Boko Haram members are being held inside bunkers in Sambisa forest, asking the military to look beyond surface but look deep for bunkers.
Shetiima made the statement today in Abuja, while presenting a paper at a two-day post election conference on security and governance, organized by the Savanna Centre, a Non Governmental Organisation, NGO, established by former Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari.
The Borno Governor who was represented by the Secretary, Borno Elders Forum, Dr Bulama Mala Gubio, said the dreaded sect, having operated in the large expanse of the forest for so many years unchallenged, were able to build a bunker, large enough to accommodate many people in the area.
“We are suspecting that Chibok girls are living with the insurgents in bunkers, I think the military must carry out their operations beyond the surface earth,” he said.
