The Federal government had revealed that the girls were exchanged with some imprisoned Boko Haram members.
While stating that some of the girls have been radicalized, Mustapha explained that it was not in his place to force any of the girls to return home.
“Some girls refused to return. I have never talked to one of the girls about their reasons. As a mediator, it is not part of my mandate to force them to return home,” he said
