President Goodluck Jonathan has reportedly seen a new video released by Boko Haram, where the abducted school girls of Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, spoke about their ordeal in the hands of the insurgents for the first time and pleaded with him to secure their release.

The girls were reportedly ill and are in camps located in Chad, Niger and Cameroon, with one of them nursing a broken wrist.

The footage, not released publicly but seen by the London-based The Mail on Sunday was taken in a jungle clearing a month after their abduction.

More than 250 girls were taken in a raid on their school in Chibok on April 14 by Boko Haram terrorists.

However, Cameroon’s military reportedly killed about 40 Boko Haram militants in the country’s northwest last weekend, a government radio reported yesterday, a day after Nigeria labelled the Central African nation the weakest link in its fight against the extremist sect.

The clashes leading to the killing occurred in the town of Kouserri, which borders Nigeria and Chad.

The Federal Government regards Cameroun as not cooperative as Niger and Chad in the fight against Boko Haram.
