Former Minister of Education and convener of the Bringbackourgirls group Mrs Obiageli Ezekwesili has led the group on a march to the Presidential villa this morning.
It is said that they are to meet with President Buhari to brief them on efforts by his Government to free the kidnapped Chibok girls. In a related development The United States said on Friday it had decreased its surveillance flights in the search for the about 219 school girls abducted by Boko Haram, It stated that it had no idea of the location of the girls, noting however that there is no letup in the efforts to locate and rescue them.
“We don’t have any better idea today than we did before about where these girls are, but there’s been no letup of the effort itself,” Pentagon spokesman Rear Admiral John Kirby told reporters, according to Reuters.
As for Madam Oby Ezekwesili, (as she is fondly called) this is a fight to finish. Regimes may change, international world powers may go weary but our girls must come back. Thumbs up and we pray that this sad episode in the Nigerian history will end soon in victory. #bringbackourgirls, chibok girls.
