HOW I TOOK TWO CHIBOK GIRLS FOR WIVES-CHRISTIAN WHO TURNED TERRORIST COMMANDER OPENS UP

How I Took Two Chibok Girls For Wives - Christian Who Turned Terrorist Commander Opens Up

Joseph David, a former commander of Boko Haram fighters has sensationally revealed how he forcibly married two of the over 250 Chibok school girls abducted by the terror sect in April 2014.

According to The Nation, Christian – turned Islamist fighter, Joseph David, now says the two Chibok girls were part of the benefits that accrued to his office as a Boko Haram commander.

Ironically, David himself was kidnapped by the sect from his native Mubi, Adamawa State, aged 22. He claimed to be a student of the Adamawa State Polytechnic, Yola at the time.

Now 25 and in security custody after he was captured by soldiers battling the sect, David said he was placed on a salary of N500, 000 per month or its foreign equivalent.

He spoke in an interview in a military detention facility in Borno State. With that kind of hefty salary, he could afford the luxury of three wives.

The Chibok girls came soon after he married his first wife, Faridah.

Life in Sambisa Forest seemed to be getting rosier for him by the day until he incurred the wrought of his “commander-in-chief” –Abubakar Shekau.

His offence: treating the Chibok girls well. The punishment for that was loss of the girls to Shekau.

“He took the two Chibok girls from me because I treated them well,” David who converted to Islam with the name Ibrahim Al Hajar said.
“He (Shekau) said he did not trust me. He said, one day, I would run with them back to Nigeria.”

David is blaming those he calls moles for the frosty relationship with Shekau.

According to him, he simply refused to maltreat his wives the way others are fond of doing. The women are still in Sambisa forest, he said.

He is also full of regrets for all the lives he took while working for the terror sect.

His words: “You know, the lives of people that I have wasted. At the end, I don’t know how it will be…on the day of judgement.

“And I regret because I was a student before Boko haram kidnapped me.

“I want to say sorry because these things that I did, I did them to save my life. If I didn’t do them, they might think I was trying to bring problem within them.

“So, I did those things smartly and logically, till the time that God provided way for me to escape.”
