The militant group has threatened to sell schoolgirls on the market.

Though initially suspected, Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau, finally claimed responsibility for the abduction of 230 schoolgirls.

Boko Haram has left thousands dead since 2009 and the world continues to watch the government’s failure to put an end to the militant insurgency.

 

In the video, Abubakar Shekau said the girls should not have been in school, but rather should get married. “God instructed me to sell them, they are his properties and I will carry out his instructions,” he said.

Protest organizer, Naomi Mutah, was arrested after Mrs. Jonathan felt slighted that the girl’s mothers had sent Ms. Mutah to the meeting in their absence.

Ms. Mutah was later released, but another Chibok leader described her detention as “unfortunate” and “insensitive,” adding that he hoped Mrs Jonathan would soon “realize her mistake.”

 

In a TV broadcast on Sunday, President Jonathan gave his first comment on the abductions, saying “Wherever these girls are, we will surely get them out.”

But Nigerians and the world are not assured of his ability.

US Secretary of State John Kerry has vowed that Washington will do “everything possible” to help Nigeria rescue the schoolgirls and deal with Boko Haram.
