Military Will Rescue More Chibok Girls, Says CSO

A Civil Society Organization, Africa Arise for Change Network has expressed optimism that the militay will rescue more of the Chibok Girls from their Boko Haram captors in the days ahead.

The group also demanded an apology from former President Goodluck Jonathan and Ekiti state governor, Ayo Fayose for leading a propaganda to make Nigerians think that the Chibok girls saga was a hoax. Addressing journalists in Abuja, National Coordinator of the group, Nkechi Odoma commended the present administration of President Muhammadu Buhari and the military for the sustained onslaught against the insurgents and the rescue of two chibok girls. She blamed the long captivity of the girls on the failure of the former administration to take immediate action after the girls were abducted from their school. She said, “In 2014, when over 200 girls were abducted from their school in Chibok, Borno State, the wife of the then President, Dame Patience Jonathan released that blockbuster of “Na only you waka come? Diaris Guuuud o”. We recall this unfortunate episode, because, funny as it was then, it typified the mind-set of the Goodluck Jonathan government and all its officials, and as we saw including spouses.”
