\"Chibok-girls-360x225\"<\/a>The acclaimed negotiator for the Islamic terror group, Boko Haram, Dr. Stephen Davis has announced another alarm about the kidnaped Chibok school girls.<\/p>\n

Mr Davis accuses opposition politicians of hindering the freedom and release of the Chibok schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram in April this year. He also accused some senior politicians of a major opposition party of helping in transferring money from Al Qaeda to Boko Haram.<\/p>\n

Further to the delayed release of the girls and the reasons for it, he warned that if the girls are set free without the leaders of Boko Haram either reined in or their sponsors stopped, Nigeria should expect an endless orgy of abductions by the same group in future.<\/p>\n

In an interview Davis granted a UK news network, Channel 4 few days ago, he stated that: \u201cThe Nigerian opposition politicians sponsoring Boko Haram have to be stopped if hundreds of local girls are to be saved.\u201d<\/p>\n

The credibility of the platform given to Davis was an indication that international support for his allegations is rapidly gaining acceptance. He claimed to have been frustrated by a number of unsuc\u00adcessful attempts to secure the abducted girls\u2019 release, and alleged that from the Nigerian media, he saw an undeniable connection between the Chibok girls\u2019 fate and cutting off the funding that is Boko Haram\u2019s lifeblood.<\/p>\n

In particular, he emphasized the role some \u201csenior politicians of a major opposition party are playing in channeling money from Al Qaeda to Boko Haram. \u201d<\/p>\n

He argued that \u201cthese individuals are bank-rolling the group\u2019s brutal activities to create instability ahead of the February 2015 Nigerian general election. There would be an endless cycle of evil if the Chibok girls are freed without the group\u2019s sponsors being stopped. It would simply lead to many more young women being taken in their place.\u201d<\/p>\n

A uk online report noted that: \u201cThe need to tackle terrorism at its source rather than simply through military action has been major news in the UK for close to a month. Some military chiefs recently grabbed national headlines when they announced that cutting off the financing that keeps terror groups armed and dangerous is key to the overall strategy of winning the war on terror.\u201d<\/p>\n

Davis further cautioned that: \u201cTackling the moneymen behind Boko Haram must be an essential part of the West\u2019s anti-terror approach. At the same time, those politicians implicated in the terror funding scandal must be investigated without delay.<\/p>\n

To do otherwise would mean unleashing untold trauma and devastation on hundreds more innocent Nigerian girls. To these young women and their families, the cost of further inaction would be incalculable.\u201d –<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
