The government had initially said it was not sure if any student was kidnapped but Gaidam confirmed the abduction on Wednesday night.
“The Yobe state government hereby informs the public that some of the girls at Government Girls Science Technical College (GGSTC) whose school was attacked by Boko Haram terrorists last Monday have been rescued by gallant officers and men of the Nigerian Army from the terrorists who abducted them,” the governor had said in a statement which Abdullahi Bego, his spokesman, issued on his behalf.
“The rescued girls are now in the custody of the Nigerian Army. We will provide more details about their number and condition in due course.”
However, after visiting Dapchi community bon Thursday, Governor Gaidam faulted the claim that the Nigerian Army rescued some of the girls. He said, In fact, that none of the abducted girls has been rescued. A Dapchi resident, Abdul Dapchi, whose two sisters were among the abducted girls, lamented to newsmen that the community became infuriated at Governor Gaidam after his confession that no girl was actually recued.
“We were all angry. How could they have deceived us all along?” asked the young man who said two of his sisters were among the captives.
