The
senator made this declaration Monday night on CNN when he was being interviewed
via a telephone call by Isha Sesay.
When
the lawmaker was asked by the reporter about what he felt about the latest
video released on Monday by the Boko Haram terror group showing some of the
abducted school girls, the senator said he experienced mixed feelings when
he saw the video.
While claiming that he was privy to information about the movement of the insurgents when the girls were abducted, Zanna said he told security agents that contrary to their belief that the abducted girls were in Sambisa forest with their abductors, that they have since been split and ferried through Lake Chad to neighbouring countries among which he said were Chad, Niger and Cameroon.
Also, while speaking during his contribution to a motion titled: Abduction of School Children in Chibok, Borno State, sponsored by the Senate Leader, Victor Ndoma-Egba, the Senator said: “I have been constantly in touch with the security agencies, telling them the developments, the movement of the girls from one place to the other and then the splitting of the girls and eventually the marriage of these girls by the insurgents.
“What
bothers me most is that whenever I informed them where these girls were, after
two to three days, they will be moved from that place to another and still, I
will go back and inform them that see, this is what is happening.
“I lost
hope two days ago when I found out that some of them were moved to Chad and
Cameroon. Actually, some of them move through the Mandara Mountain that is in
Gwoza and some of them are just a stone throw from their barracks, even now as
I am talking to you, some of them are in Kolofata, which is in Cameroon but
about 15 kilometres or even less to the borders."
