Western governments knew the whereabouts
of 80 Nigerian girls kidnapped by Boko Haram but failed to launch a
rescue mission for them, Sunday Times of London has reported.
According to the report, videos of the girls have emerged where they were being used as sex slaves.
It stated that the United States and the
United Kingdom’s surveillance discovered the location of the girls, but
did not rescue them.
Terrorists stormed a secondary boarding
school in the remote town of Chibok in Borno State, northern Nigeria in
April 2014, and seized 276 girls who were preparing for end-of-year
exams.
Although 57 of the girls managed to
escape, the rest have remained missing and have not been heard from or
seen since apart from in May that year, when 130 of them appeared in a
Boko Haram vidoe wearing hijab and reciting the Quran.
