kidnapping from a school in the<br \/>\nvillage of Chibok, near the Cameroon border, Dr Davis, who had recently<br \/>\nmoved to Perth from London, decided he could not sit on his hands.<\/p>\n<p>During the journey his life was threatened more than once, but his<br \/>\nAustralian passport saved him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When confronted by groups with an AK-47 in my face they&#8217;d say, &#8216;you are<br \/>\nAmerican, we have to kill you&#8217;,&#8221; Dr Davis said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When you say, no I&#8217;m not American, they think you are British, and say<br \/>\nyou will still die, but when I said I&#8217;m Australian, they said that&#8217;s all<br \/>\nright.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have no idea why but it&#8217;s certainly been helpful.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The devout Christian managed to smuggle out of the country footage of a<br \/>\nhandful of schoolgirls who escaped from Boko Haram.<\/p>\n<p>They detail the atrocities they endured, including being raped almost on a<br \/>\ndaily basis.<\/p>\n<p>Release agreed as &#8216;goodwill&#8217; gesture<\/p>\n<p>Following media reports that nobody knew where the girls were, he decided<br \/>\nto reach out to his contacts.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I made a few phone calls to the Boko Haram commanders and they confirmed<br \/>\nthey were in possession of the girls,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They told me they&#8217;d be prepared to release some as a goodwill gesture<br \/>\ntowards a peace deal with the government, so I went to Nigeria on the<br \/>\nbasis of being able to secure their release.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Arriving in Nigeria, Dr Davis quickly set up talks with commanders and he<br \/>\nbelieved he had brokered a deal.<\/p>\n<p>Fearing being arrested, the Boko Haram commanders &#8211; holding the girls<br \/>\nacross the border in Cameroon &#8211; had a list of conditions.<\/p>\n<p>They wanted the military stood down and promised to drop the girls in a<br \/>\nvillage before phoning to give their exact location.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Davis said they lived up to their promise, but in a country ravaged by<br \/>\nwar and corruption, the rescue was sabotaged.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The girls were there, 60 girls, there were 20 vehicles with girls,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We travelled for four-and-a-half hours to reach them, but 15 minutes<br \/>\nbefore we arrived they were kidnapped again by another group who wanted to<br \/>\ncash in on a reward.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The police had offered a reward of several million Naira just 24 hours<br \/>\nbefore we went to pick them up.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I understand, from the Boko Haram commanders I spoke to, the girls<br \/>\neventually ended up back with them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know what happened to the group that took them but I suspect it<br \/>\nwasn&#8217;t good.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Four girls escaped by heading west<\/p>\n<p>Dr Davis said a young man kidnapped by Boko Haram and used as a driver<br \/>\nlater helped a handful of girls escape.<\/p>\n<p>One kidnapped girl, who managed to avoid having her mobile phone<br \/>\nconfiscated by turning it off and hiding it in her bra, managed to call<br \/>\nher family while hiding in bushes, but had no idea where she was or which<br \/>\ndirection she should be heading.<\/p>\n<p>After being told to walk west by following the sunset each evening the<br \/>\nfour girls managed to cross the border from Cameroon and into Nigeria<br \/>\nbefore being reunited with their families.<\/p>\n<p>So far they are the only girls to have escaped from a Boko Haram camp.<\/p>\n<p>When Dr Davis later tried to contact, via text, the young man who helped<br \/>\nthem, he received a sobering reply.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The person you are trying to contact has gone on a journey from which<br \/>\nthere is no return,&#8221; the reply read.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He was an infidel.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Dr Davis said the longer he stayed in Nigeria the more it dawned on him<br \/>\nthe kidnappings would not end.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It became very clear that if I was able to get 50 girls released then<br \/>\nanother group would kidnap 70 or 80 more,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So by freeing 50 you were consigning 70 or 80 more to the same fate.&#8221;<br \/>\nAtrocities going unreported<\/p>\n<p>Dr Davis said initially journalists from around the world including CNN,<br \/>\nthe ABC and the BBC flooded into the country, but they concluded it was<br \/>\nfar too dangerous to send any crews into the north-east of the country.<\/p>\n<p>He said since then, the violence in north-east Nigeria and the threat of<br \/>\nforeign journalists being kidnapped and beheaded meant there had been<br \/>\nlimited coverage of the crimes being committed by Boko Haram.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Boko Haram used to telephone Nigerian journalists and give them a story,<br \/>\nbut that doesn&#8217;t happen anymore,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They go straight to social media. They post their own material and<br \/>\nthey&#8217;ve learnt to become very savvy on social media and use it as an<br \/>\ninstrument to terrorise.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Dr Davis said he had realised the only way to stop the kidnappings was to<br \/>\nstop the sponsors of Boko Haram.<\/p>\n<p>While Al Qaeda was involved in training Boko Haram recruits, Dr Davis said<br \/>\none of their major sources of funding &#8211; aside from raiding banks &#8211; was<br \/>\nNigerian politicians.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That makes it easier in some ways as they can be arrested, but of course<br \/>\nthe onus of proof is high and many are in opposition, so if the president<br \/>\nmoves against them, he would be accused of trying to rig the elections due<br \/>\nearly next year,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So I think this will run through to the election unabated.<br \/>\n&#8220;These politicians think that if they win power they can turn these<br \/>\nterrorists off, but this has mutated.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s no longer a case of Muslims purifying by killing off Christians.<br \/>\nThey are just killing indiscriminately, beheading, disembowelling people &#8211;<br \/>\nmen, women and children and whole villages.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I would say it&#8217;s almost beyond the control of the political sponsors now.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Terror groups are linking up in Somalia, southern Sudan, Egypt and we<br \/>\nhave fairly strong evidence they are talking with ISIS members.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They will link up with ISIS and Al Shabaab and I think that what we are<br \/>\nseeing in that region is the new homeland of radical Islam in the world.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Courtesy: ABC<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"base-card-clear\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1409260568303_3090\" class=\"base-card-footer\"><\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2026Says: Jonathan Will be Accused of Trying to Rig if He Tries To prosecute them A Perth-based international adviser has survived months of extreme danger to try to rescue more&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":30655,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30677","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-exclusive"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
