Nigerian journalist reveals that only 15 out of the remaining 112 abducted Chibok girls are alive

A Nigerian journalist, Ahmad Salkida ‏with links to the Islamist group Boko Haram has claimed only 15 out of the 112 missing Chibok girls are still alive. 

Ahmad Salkida said he had negotiated for the release of the girls on behalf of the government. Several opportunities to have them released were missed, Salikda said.

Salkida said the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan had asked him to negotiate for the release of the Chibok schoolgirls two weeks after they were abducted. He said he had arranged for a prisoner swap on five occasions, but delays from the then government led to a breakdown in negotiations.
