Nigeria says no to militants swap request

Written by on May 13, 2014

Nigeria says it will not agree to a request to free imprisoned Islamic militants in return for the release of dozens of kidnapped school girls.

The country’s Interior Minister says the group Boko Haram, which is holding the girls, is in no moral position to make the offer.

Earlier, the information ministry had said all options were on the table, after the group released a video of the girls and suggested a swap.

Boko Haram abducted more than 200 girls from a school on April 14.

About 50 of the girls escaped, and it is not known how many are still being held.
