Five parents of the abducted 219 Chibok schoolgirls claim to have received calls from the phone numbers of their missing daughters.
This was disclosed to Punch Newspapers on Tuesday, by the Chairman, Chibok Community in Abuja, Tsambido Abana.
He said: “Five parents informed me that they have been receiving calls from their daughters’ phones, but when they called back, the persons that responded said the phones were their own and that they should stop calling the lines.”
“We don’t know if the network (telecom firms) had allocated the girls’ lines to other persons or if the callers were just playing pranks on the parents; we will report this to the government for security agencies to investigate.”
The Chibok community chairman added that he was informed about the calls on Tuesday.
April 14-15 will see Nigeria and the world mark the 2-year anniversary of the abduction of the Chibok girls by insurgents of Boko Haram terrorist sect.
