Parents of some of the abducted Chibok school girls are accusing the vice-principal of the school the girls attended, Government Girls Secondary School Chibok, of assisting Boko Haram in the abduction of the girls.
The
aggrieved parents leveled the allegations while speaking with Sahara Reporters
newsmen.
Here is an

The parents
claimed that the role of the vice principal was at least questionable, adding
that their daughters were made vulnerable to Boko Haram kidnappers. Some of the
parents leveled the allegations while speaking to a correspondent of
SaharaReporters.
A mother of
one of the abducted girls, Mariam Abubakar, stated that Vice Principal Yerima
Banjiri had told the school girls that any one of them who failed to sleep in
the school the night of the abduction would be expelled as a student of
Government Girls Secondary School Chibok.
According to
her, “A week before their abductions, Malam Yerima threatened the students not
to leave for their various homes. He said that whoever went home should forget
she was ever a student at the school. He told the girls that none of them
should go home, that they must sleep in the school. However, none of the
teachers’ daughters or even the daughters of the management staff was among
those kidnapped. Only the children of we poor people were asked to sleep in the
school. The [teachers and administrators] had kept their children in safer
places before Boko Haram arrived.”
The
distraught mother accused the vice president and possibly other staff of
conniving with Boko Haram. “Our concern is that since the day of [the girls’]
abduction, we have never set our eyes on Malam Yerima. He is on run,” Abubakar
said…
