"We don't have independent information from the United States to support these reports you referenced," U.S. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said when asked about Nigerian Chief of Defense Staff Air Marshal Alex Badeh's statement that the military knew where the abducted girls were. "We, as a matter of policy and for the girls' safety and wellbeing, would not discuss publicly this sort of information regardless." (Reporting By Arshad Mohammed; Editing by Chris Reese)
