Chief Executive Officer of Murtala Muhammed Foundation, Mrs. Aishat Muhammaed-Oyebode has said that

the female suicide bomber undergoing treatment in Cameroon is not one of the schoolgirls abducted in Chibok on April 14, 2014.

In a signed statement circulated yesterday, Mrs Mohammed said, on Wednesday, March 30, “three authorized representatives of the parents of the 219 missing Chibok girls arrived the Murtala Muhammed Foundation (MMF) office from Chibok Local Government Area of Borno State to view photos of the girl claiming to be one of the 219 missing students kidnapped by Boko Haram.

“Mr. Yakubu Nkeki, chairman, Mr Lawan Zana secretary, Mrs. Yana Galang women leader of the Chibok

Girls Movement , all of whose children are amongst the kidnapped 219 Chibok girls were upon their arrival shown photos of the girl who was arrested along with another woman on Friday March 25 carrying explosives in Limani, Cameroon.

“A set of photographs had been sent to the MMF on the evening of Monday, March 28 by Garba Shehu, special assistant to the president on Media and Publicity. A more recent batch of photos, taken at 2:00pm on Tuesday, March 29 was sent to the MMF by Ambassador Hadiza Mustafa, Nigeria’s High Commissioner to Cameroon.

The earlier set of photos showed the girl partially clothed and squatting on the sandy floor within a low cement wall enclosure, which was surrounded by soldiers and some civilians. In that same batch, the woman was

being carried in the arms of a soldier, with her face swollen and plaster covering different parts of her body. She was also partially clothed. In the more recent photos, however, the girl was fully clothed, standing against a wall and looking into the camera.

The woman was also standing straight beside what appeared to be a hospital bed, she was fully-clothed. Her face still appeared slightly swollen with dressing on her forehead.

“The Nigerian government by Tuesday afternoon had already informed the MMF that the girl has clearly identified herself as Maryam Alhaji Wakeel, 12 years old, originally from Maiduguri but abducted from Bama when the town was overrun by Boko Haram a year ago. The woman has identified herself as Aishatu Usman, a 35-year-old mother of two children.

“However, the identification process was still carried out to lay to rest any claims that the girl is one of the 219 girls kidnapped from their school in Chibok on April 14, 2014. Mr. Nkeki, Mallam Zana and Mrs. Galang have

confirmed that the girl and the woman do not fit the description of any of the missing daughters from Chibok.

“We have also made arrangements for other stakeholders to view the photos at the MMF office in Abuja as we are yet to ascertain how the girl came to describe herself as one of the missing Chibok girls.

The identity of the girl notwithstanding, the MMF has informed the Nigerian government of its willingness to continue to pursue the matter, and is willing to provide the captured girl and woman any support they may require.
