Boko Haram ready to negotiate surrender, release of Chibok girls -- Report

[TODAY.NG] There are indications that the Boko Haram
... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality...
 gunnies group have shown willingness to negotiate their surrender and release of the remaining kidnapped Chibok school girls in their custody with the federal government.
All of them, or a small, non-representative group that speaks only for itself? It was the latter, the last several times this kind of thing came up.
According to the Times of London, senior members of the terrorist group said it was prepared to negotiate a surrender and release the hostages on the condition they would not be not betrayed by the government or killed for giving up arms.

Over 200 students of the Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, were seized two years ago and have not been traced or found.

"We want to surrender because things are getting worse," said Amir Muhammad Abdullahi, who is reportedly Boko Haram’s second in command. He said no side was winning the battle and that only a third of the girls remained as "the rest have been martyred".
Actually, Boko Haram is clearly losing, which means the governments must be winning. And the government will accept receipt of all the kidnapped girls, and the boys, too, before this thing is over, O Amir.
