Muslim commander: Rest of kidnapped schoolgirls not coming home

276 mostly Christian schoolgirls were abducted by Boko Haram in late April 2014.

The rest of the "Chibok girls" kidnapped by Muslim terrorists in 2014 are not coming home.

That's the word from a Boko Haram commander who recently was arrested by Nigerian security forces.

A report from the worldwide Christian ministry Barnabas Fund said the captured terrorist told police that the rest of the girls, thought to be around 100, "have been indoctrinated and married to Boko Haram fighters."

The kidnapping of 276 school girls happened in April 2014.

They were mainly Christian children attending a government secondary school in Chibok in northeast Nigeria.

Since then, about 160 have escaped or were rescued.

Those who escaped told stories of being whipped by their captors, forced into marriage and being subjected to mock executions.

WND reported in 2017 when 82 were rescued or released from the Boko Haram jihadists.

The girls, who inspired the #BringBackOurGirls movement, were freed after some Boko Haram suspects held by authorities were released, government officials reported at the time.

Then-first lady Michelle Obama tweeted a picture of herself holding a placard with the #BringBackOurGirls appeal.

As WND reported in 2016, Nigerian Bishop Matthew Hassan Kukah, while on a U.S. tour, charged Western governments weren't doing enough to get the girls back.

Kukah said "political intrigues" involving the U.S. and European governments have "relegated the fate of the girls to the chessboard of politics."

He told WND at the time: "We must not treat the fate of these girls in isolation or even Boko Haram's strategy of abducting these girls. Our children remain at great risk in Nigeria, but especially girls who are often married off at young ages as reluctant brides."
