The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has appealed to commentators and analysts to refrain from making statements that can jeopardize the release of the Chibok girls who are still in captivity. The Minister made the appeal on Sunday in Abuja at a special thanksgiving Church Service and reunion of the 21 girls with their families.

“They are many reckless analysts and commentators who are not helping the situation. We still have many of our children in captivity. Therefore we have to be careful with the kind of comments that we make. We must not make comments that will make the release of these girls difficult or impossible.”

“…When the President said that the Boko Haram saga will not be closed until all the girls abducted have been released and reunited with their families safely, those who doubted did not believe us so we thank God this day has come,” he said.

Alhaji Mohammed appealed to the parents of the girls who are yet to be freed to continue to exercise patience, saying “This is the beginning and we are very optimistic that very soon another batch bigger than this will be released. I want to assure you that these negotiations are ongoing even as we speak.”

The Chairman of the Parents of the Abducted Chibok School Girls, Yakubu Nkeki, re-echoed the Minister’s plea by appealing to the people to stop spreading rumours, particularly on the Social Media, that will put the lives of the girls at risk.

He debunked some reports alleging that 18 of the 21 free girls are pregnant even as he denied that the girls were radicalised by Boko Haram.

Mr. Nkeki thanked President Buhari for summoning the courage and the political will that eventually led to the release of the abducted girls.

In her testimony, the spokesperson of the released girls, Miss Gloria Dame, who recalled their ordeal in captivity, thanked God and all those who made their safe release and reunion with their families possible.

Miss Dame, who spoke in Hausa, prayed that God will ensure the safe release of the other girls still in captivity.

“We never thought we will ever see this moment but God has made it possible for us. I want to appeal to all of us to fast and pray for the safe release of those left behind,” she said.

Dr. Shiktra Kwali, who delivered the sermon at the thanksgiving service, told the girls that as they start a new life in freedom, they should not allow the experience of the past to weigh them down, and urged them to remain steadfast in serving the Lord, who has not forsaken them even in captivity.

Several ministers of God, including the President of the Church of Brethren in Nigeria (EYN), Reverend Joel Bilili, offered prayers for the girls.

The high-point of the occasion was the reunion between the parents and their daughters. Tears flowed freely as parents took turns to identify their daughters, while one woman simply carried her daughter on her back in happiness.

The ceremony ended with an identification parade, as each of the freed girls identified her parents who in turn made brief comments, with many of them praising President Muhammadu Buhari for ensuring the safe release of the girls

Mr Lie Mohammed
Who dem exchange for those girls?

Of what concerns is it to u ?

This country is filled with actors and actresses, not surprise nollyhood has gotten into the office of this present administration.

Oh I see.. Now there is need for CAUTION!

About 2 years ago you'll assemble all the media and say all manner of falsehood to disrupt governments effort to end insurgency and liberate its victim.

Today you are cautious because you want us to acknowledge you.

Our political class advocates more on self interest and political affiliation than the Nigeria state, little wonder why there wouldn't be continuity even within same cycle of affiliates.

I feel for Nigeria

I agree with Mr Lai on this. Media shouldn't jeopardise their release

Is that why Nigeria (Buhari & co) is preparing to pay heavily to boko haram for the release of the girls?
So that boko haram will later use the money to reinforce and the struggle continues.

We done hear #Drama continues

Look at the girls at the church service u'll wonder if they've been in captivity for 900days or in a well planned bunker to scam the world just to grab power . They are extremely too healthy to be under BH control for 900 days. We ain't buying this scam. Who are the sponsors of BH?

Chibok girls scam .... These girls were released from government secret bunker located in maduigiri .

This Mohammed can lie. You think we'll believe ur cheap lies, after killing alot of the insurgent they'll now release to you the captives so easily, Liars.
