Nigerian Boko Haram suspect extradited from Sudan Nigeria parents deny playing politics over Chibok girls
(about 2 hours later)
The alleged mastermind of a twin bomb attack in Nigeria's capital Abuja, which killed 75 people, has been extradited from Sudan back to Nigeria. Parents of the schoolgirls abducted by militant Islamists in Nigeria have denied playing politics by refusing to meet President Goodluck Jonathan.
Tuesday's meeting failed to take place because proper "protocol" had not been followed, their spokesman said.
Mr Jonathan said the parents had called off the meeting after being manipulated by the #BringBackOurGirls campaign group.
Boko Haram captured more than 200 girls in the town of Chibok on 14 April.
The row occurred as the alleged mastermind of a twin bomb attack in Nigeria's capital, Abuja, was extradited from Sudan back to Nigeria.

Thousands of people have been killed in the group's violent campaign to establish an Islamic state in Nigeria. Boko Haram said it carried out the bombings.
'In pain'
Mr Jonathan declared a state of emergency in three north-eastern states last year to quell the insurgency, but Boko Haram has stepped up attacks since then.
It caused an international outcry in April when it abducted the girls.
#BringBackOurGirls was a global campaign launched on social media to secure their release.
Mr Jonathan was widely criticised for failing to meet distraught parents and not doing enough to rescue the girls.
On Monday, he agreed to meet 12 parents and five girls who escaped shortly after being seized by Boko Haram following a request by Pakistani rights campaigner Malala Yousafzai.
The parents called off the meeting because they did not have a mandate from the Chibok community, said their spokesman, Dauda Iliya.
The decision had "nothing" to do with the #BringBackOurGirls campaign group, he told BBC Focus on Africa.
"We are in pain. We can't bear any animosity to the government," Mr Iliya said.
