President Muhammadu Buhari |
ABUJA – President Muhammadu Buhari, Tuesday, said his administration
would do everything within its power to ensure the safe return of the
over 200 missing Chibok girls.
The girls were in April 2014, abducted from the Federal Government
Secondary school, Chibok, Borno State, by members of the Boko Haram
terrorist sect.

The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr.
Abubakar Malami, SAN, who spoke when the BringBackOurGirls campaign
movement visited his office in Abuja yesterday, described the abduction
of the girls as “tormenting and psychologically traumatising” for the
nation.
He said: “It is tragic for a nation to have a budget meant for arms
procurement for the protection of lives and property of the citizens,
and end up not having the arms but compromising the process of making
adequate provisions for the protection of lives of its citizens.
“The government of President Muhammadu Buhari has demonstrated
sufficient skill and commitment to the protection of lives and property
within the shortest practicable time of coming into existence, it has
recorded tremendous success including confronting Sambisa forest head-on
with the hope rescuing the Chik girls.”
