Meeting Chibok parents not good for my emotional state, Buhari tells CNN On May 12, 2016


By Ikenna

President Muhammadu Buhari has said meeting parents of the schoolgirls abducted from Government Secondary School, Chibok, Borno state, on a regular basis, is not good for his emotional state.


Lamenting the plight of the parents in an interview with Chief International Correspondent and host of CNNi’s nightly global affairs program, Christine Amanpour, President Buhari said he could not imagine his own daughter in such situation.


“I saw the families as a group twice. The first time, they came to visit my wife. The second, they came as a group to see me, and the less I see them the better for my own emotional balance,” he said.

“I try to imagine my 14-year-old year old daughter missing for more than two years. I try to imagine what condition are they in. A lot of the fathers would rather see their graves, than imagine them under such condition.”

He also opposed the idea of showing a proof of life video to the parents, saying there was no point raising their hopes when the girls had not been rescued. During the second anniversary of their abduction, CNN made public a video of some of the girls. The video was said to have been sent to negotiators by their captors. “I have not seen that video and even if I see it, I will be very careful about showing it to the family.

There is no point to deliberately raise the hope of the families if you can’t meet them,” he said. “If we know where they are, then we can organise to secure them, but if they have been divided in a group of five, ten, two all over this region of Lake Chad commission, that is Cameroon, Chad, Nigeria and Niger, there is no way we can spontaneously and simultaneously attack all those locations and get the girls and the important thing to us is to get them alive.”

Really!

OMG! This man keep on becoming an international disgrace everyday.

So meeting the parents of chibok is not good for your health, but you and your APC transgenders wanted Gej to be meeting them everyday.

Infact you people wanted Gej to be sleeping inside Chibok community.

May thunder and lightning strike all of you dead.

forget the hype, which useless General?

The only adventure the Nigeria military enjoys doing, is the killing of innocent and un-armed civilians.

Tell me again,

Who is the President
And
COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF OF THE ARMED FORCES
OF
NIGERIA?


That answer is too glib and lacks the diplomacy it was gunning for. Let's act this out
Aide: Mr President, Zondogo Republic has finally made good it's threat to invade the nation.
Mr President: oh no, not now, you know I am manic-depressed/bipolar.
These parents are hoping against hope (me too), so the face of our President would do wonders for them.

please can you further educate us on the difference between "Emotional State" and "Ones Health"?

Please stop bringing lame argument here. The Op is right.

Whether it is "Emotional State, Mental State, or Psychological State, the point is that all of them has to do with someone's health status.


Thank me later for this lecture.
