The Nigerian militants suspected of seizing more than 200 schoolgirls
hostage are seeking a prisoner swap for jailed comrades, a former mediator
with Boko Haram has told The Telegraph.
.
Shehu Sani, who brokered face-to-face peace talks with the group, said he
believed that the video in which Boko Haram threatened to sell the girls
as "slaves" was proof that they planned to use them as bargaining chips
rather than kill them.
.
The video was released on Monday and featured Boko Haram's leader,
Abubakar Shekau, gloatingly claiming that he would sell the captives "in
the market" to anyone wishing to take them as wives.
.
But while the broadcast appalled the captives' families and sparked
worldwide outrage, Mr Sani saw it as a veiled attempt to
.
"If you look at the fact that these girls have already been in captivity
for some three weeks, then it is possible to detect a conciliatory tone in
this statement from Shekau he is not saying he is going to kill the
girls," Mr Sani said.
.
"From my knowledge of the group, to have him saying that he will sell them
is proof that this issue can be resolved. The group is most likely to want
to attach some kind of conditions to the girls being released, such as the
freeing of some of their own prisoners."
.
Mr Sani spoke as international efforts to help the Nigerian government
free the girls gathered pace. On Wednesday, Britain said it would send a
small team of experts to Nigeria "as soon as possible".
.
While the team is expected to concentrate on planning and giving advice
to local officials rather than any ground operation to free the girls,
Downing Street is also understood to have ordered locally-based liaison
officers from the SAS to help the rescue mission, according to The Times.
.
British special forces previously took part with their Nigerian
counterparts in an attempted rescue of a British hostage, Chris McManus,
who was killed by his captors during the operation to free him in March
2012. He had been kidnapped by a gang said to be affiliated to Nigerian
Islamic militants.
