The advocacy group for the release of
the Chibok girls, Bring Back Our Girls Group BBOG, will be matching to the
Presidential villa on Jan. 14th to continue their demand for the release of the
Chibok girls. Leader of the group and former Minister of Education, Oby
Ezekwesili, while speaking at the group's daily sit-out in Abuja yesterday
January 6th, said the need for the march is born out of the recent remarks made
by President Buhari during his media chat that the Nigerian government has no credible intelligence about
the Chibok girls.
“After our meeting with the President,
we had promised not to disperse but continue to meet until the girls are back.
But the feedback we got from the government, did not encourage us. It kept
saying that there was no credible intelligence about the girls. On January 14,
2016, we will walk all the way to the Villa and we will remind the president of
the promise he made in the Villa during our meeting with him and also during
his inauguration and every time he spoke about our Chibok girls. We will remind
him that if there is anybody that will be uncomfortable that the girls are not
yet rescued, it should be him,” she said
