The terrorists group, Boko Haram, has released a video showing some women believed to have been kidnapped from a police convoy in Borno State on June 21.
The women, according to the leader of the group, Abubakar Shekau, had become slaves.
In the video, one of the women who gave her name as Adam Gomdia and described herself as a lecturer at the Federal College of Fisheries, Baga, said five of them were public servants.
Her words: “Today, here we are, everyone has seen us, our relatives have seen us, government, our youngsters have all seen us, this is not a lie, we have been abducted for 30 days,” said Gomdia
Another captive, Deborah Philipus, who spoke in the video said the terrorists had taken care of them by treating their injuries and providing other necessities for them.
“We are grateful to you (Boko Haram). But the government of Nigeria should not say we were not abducted, indeed we were abducted,” Philipus said.
