Abducted Dapchi School Girls Released by Rickyrick: 10:49am On Mar 21, 2018
On Wednesday, the Nigerian Presidency confirmed the release of the abducted students of Government Girls Science and Technical College, Dapchi, Yobe State who were abducted by the Boko Haram extremist group on February 19.


The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, confirmed this in an interview. He also promised to give further details on the development later.


The presidential spokesman said:

“Yes, the girls are being transported to safety. We will give details later. We thank God.”


The girls release came exactly one week after President Muhammadu Buhari visited the school where they were kidnapped.

Buhari had during the visit last Wednesday reassured parents of the abducted schoolgirls that the Federal Government will not rest on its oars, until their wards are safely brought back home.

The President, who was accompanied by Governor Ibrahim Gaidam of Yobe State, said he had directed full scale aerial surveillance and investigation to ensure that the girls were returned safely.


He said:

“I have read the full report of what happened in Dapchi. As I received the report, I was saddened and I am praying that God will continue to console you.”


President Buhari said:

“Boko Haram was in control of many local councils in Borno and some parts of Yobe State before we came. Now it has resorted to using young girls for suicide missions in mosques, churches and motor parks. We will not spare their members. We will ensure that Boko Haram meets its waterloo. By the will of God, I have directed the police and reinforced them, and the army and air force to keep searching until the children are returned alive.
