It will be recalled that following the invitation extended to the group by government to participate in the search mission the BBOG had given certain conditions before its members would join.

Specifically, the group requested a Pre-Tour Meeting with government officials and a retraction of some remarks allegedly made by the Chief of Army Staff, which it found to be slanderous.

The government in a letter signed by the Minister of Information ad Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed had rejected the conditions given by the group and insisted that the team would proceed on the trip as scheduled.

Following the position of government NAN reports that the BBOG reviewed the conditions and indicated acceptance to participate in the exercise.

In a letter to the Minister on Sunday night, the group asked government to “quickly provide us more details of the tour duration and detailed logistics including the names of the local and
international media on the delegation.

” We need this information to enable us send you a more substantial letter conveying our acceptance to join the Guided Tour”.

NAN reports that the Minister responded to the request by giving details of the trip and other requests by the group.
