Is too annoying the way we bring politics in everything we do in this country. Sorry to say this, i still doubt the truth behind the missing girls. when our first lady cried there is God, people made jest of her. I remembered vividly that she tried to reach out to the parents of the abducted girls but politics did not allow them to show up. this women made themselves available to a Malala on Monday and on Wednesday they refused to see the president of Nigeria.
What is really going on in this country? I would love to know if the parents of Chibok abducted girls now reside in Abuja.
how come that they are willing to identify with foreign body and not with the Government of this country?
What is the brain behind the #bringbackourgirls group opening a bank account?
Report has it, that meeting scheduled between President Goodluck Jonathan and the
parents of abducted girls in Chibok, Tuesday, could not hold as the parents
shunned the meeting.
The meeting was arranged after education activist, Malala
Yousofazai met with President
Jonathan on Monday and pleaded with the him to
meet with the parents of the abducted girls.
President Jonathan in a statement delivered by his Senior Special
Assistant on Public Affairs, Dr Doyin Okupe accused the #Bringbackourgirl
activists of politicising the planned meeting by ferrying the parents out of
Abuja before the meeting could hold.
The statement reads: “It now appears that our fight to get the
girls of Chibok back is not only a fight against a terrorist insurgency, but
also against a political opposition.
“It is with great regret that I announce the cancellation of the
meeting with 12 parents of the abducted Chibock children, as well as five of
the brave girls who escaped from the terrorist organization Boko Haram. I
scheduled this meeting, which was to be open to the media for coverage by
Nigerian and international press; to listen to their stories and to privately
brief the parents and the girls on our efforts to rescue the abducted girls.
“My priority is not politics. My priority is the return of these
girls.
“Unfortunately, political forces within the Nigerian chapter of
#BringBackOurGirls have decided to take this opportunity to play politics with
the situation and the grief of the parents and the girls. They should be
ashamed of their actions.
“Those who would manipulate the victims of terrorism for their
own benefit, are engaging in a similar kind of evil: psychological terrorism.
“I want to be clear, this government stands with complete solidarity
with the girls and their parents. We are doing everything in our power to bring
back our girls. Despite the shameful and disgusting games being played by the
Nigerian chapter of Bring Back Our Girls, as a father of girls, I stand ready
to meet with the parents of our abducted children and the truly brave girls
that have escaped this nightmare through the grace of God.” Nigerians we need to open our eyes
