FG denies hiring Stephen Davis as Boko Haram negotiator

These people like to confuse Nigerians sha. How will someone claim he
was hired to do a job by a government if that is not so? FG has denied
claims by Australian hostage negotiator, Stephen Davis, that he was
hired by the Nigerian Government to negotiate for the release of
Chibok girls.

Speaking through the Coordinator of the National Information Center,
Mr Mike Omeri, today Sept. 5th in Abuja, FG said the decision to hire
a negotiator would be made public whenever they decide to do so and
that they have no plans to question those alleged to be Boko Haram
sponsors by Stephen Davis

"For now nobody has been hired by the government to negotiate on its
behalf with Boko Haram. Anytime the government decides to do so, it
will make it known to the public.The government is still investigating
the allegations made by the alleged negotiator. However, the
government has no plan to question anybody because of those
allegations made by the Australian," Omeiri stated.
