15 year old suicide bomber detained in Cameroon says she's one of Chibok girls

According to Reuters, a 15 year old female suicide bomber who was arrested with a bomb in Limani village, an area of northern Cameroon, today March 25th, says she is one of the Chibok girls kidnapped by Boko Haram in April 2014. The girl and another suicide bomber were reportedly apprehended by the villagers and handed over to the Cameroonian soldiers who interrogated them.


"One of them indeed declared that she is one of the Chibok hostages. She is around 15. We are now verifying, because on the Nigerian side they have the names and photos of these girls," said local government administrator Raymond Roksdo.
Two military sources who spoke anonymously, confirmed that the girl had claimed to have been one of the Chibok abductees.
"We need a few days to be able to confirm this information. We have to debrief all the men who were present and interrogate the two girls before we can say anything," one of the military sources said.
