Sani Usman, army spokesman, disclosed this in a statement,
saying the trio are being wanted for having links with Boko Haram. “The trio have been declared wanted because they are in
possession of information on the conditions and the exact location of schoolgirls
kidnapped by Boko Haram from Government Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State,
in 2014,” the statement read.
“We are relying on the relevant laws of the land and in
particular the terrorism prevention Act 2011 (as amended), where Nigerians
could be punished for failure to disclose information about terrorists or
terrorist activities.
“This becomes necessary as a result of their link with the
last two videos released by Boko Haram terrorists and other findings of our
preliminary investigations.
“They must, therefore, come forward and tell us where the
group is keeping the Chibok Girls and other abducted persons to enable us to
rescue them.”
Salkida is currently on self-imposed exile.
