Gunmen suspected to be Boko Haram were reported to have abducted about 20 women in a nomadic settlement known as Garkin Fulani.
The chairman, who was addressing the members of the Bring Back Our Girls Campaign Group, yesterday stated that he was unaware of the incident but added that he could only confirm of the incident that happened on Monday where a village near Chibok was razed down and two people confirmed dead.
He commended the members of the group for its resilience in the campaign for the abducted girls to be brought back to their families safe.
Lawan who promised to come back to talk to the group, called on Nigerians and international communities to pray for the safe return of the girls.
“Thank you for your effort and your time since our girls were abducted on the 14th of April. You people have protested, praying for the release of the girls. We thank you all. We still pray and cry to the world to assist us for the safe return of the girls,” he said.
