Chibok Girls Will Not Be Abandoned Or Forgotten-President Buhari
–
Loading ...President Muhammadu Buhari assures the parents of the school girls that were abducted from Government Girls Secondary School Chibok, Borno State, that โtheir daughters will never be forgotten or abandoned to their fate, despite four long years since they were taken away by terrorists.โโ
President Buhari joins the Borno State government, parents of the children and Nigerians in commemorating the fourth anniversary of the sad incident, praying that the event at the school today will go well.
The President urges the parents to keep their hopes alive on the return of their daughters, noting that the recoveryย of more than a 100 of the girls that were kidnapped through the Federal Governmentโs determined effort should give confidence thatย ” all hope is not lost”.
President Buhari re-affirms that the government remains focused and determined to see the girls return to their homes, urging the parents to be expectant of more good news in due course.
โWe are concerned and aware that it is taking long to bring the rest of our daughters back home, but be assured that this administration is doing its very best to free the girls from their captors.
โUnfortunately, the negotiations between the government and Boko Haram suffered some unexpected setbacks, owing mainly to a lack of agreement among their abductors, whose internal differences have led to a divergence of voices regarding the outcome of the talks. We know that this is not the news parents want to hear after four whole years of waiting, but we want to be as honest as possible with you.
โHowever, this government is not relenting. We will continue to persist, and the parents should please not give up. Don’t give up hope of seeing our daughters back home again. Don’t lose faith in this government’s ability to fulfill our promise of reuniting you with our daughters.
โDon’t imagine for a moment that we have forgotten about our daughters or that we consider their freedom a lost course,โโ the President said.
President Buhari assures that as long as he remains the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces the Chibok girls will never be forgotten and all will be done to have them reunited with their families.
