The Nigerian military says there has been no arrest or operation by any foreign military or security allies in the ongoing efforts to rescue the abducted girls or conduct of the ongoing counter terrorist campaign in Nigeria, as reported by national dailies on Saturday.

In a statement, the spokesman for the military, Major General Chris Olukolade, said: “Contrary to the reports and the pictures being circulated online to illustrate the claims, there has been no incident or record as reported”.

He further stated that the pictures being circulated to illustrate the claims in the story were not related to the situation in Nigeria as they were taken from scenes in other countries.

“Indeed, no troop of the American Marines has so far been deployed in any part of Nigeria as is being circulated in certain media.

“International coalition is quite appropriate in handling terrorism being a trans-border and global crime,” Major General Olukolade stressed.
