Abuja – Parents of the girls abducted by Boko Haram terrorists, from Secondary School, in Dapchi, Yobe state, on Thursday, protested to National Assembly, demanding a total probe into the incident and actions that would lead to the quick recovery of their daughters.

The parents, both mothers and fathers, who wore black shirts with inscription, “We are Dapchi People”, said that they had come into Abuja on Wednesday night, to tell their stories to the seat of power and demand for action.

Some of the parents, who were practically weeping, recounted their ordeals since the abduction of their daughters, saying that it has been a nightmare.

Yahaya Taributu, a father of one of the abducted girls, told INDEPENDENT that three of his daughters were among the girls taken into captivity by the terrorists.

“Government should go and bring back our daughters”, Taributu demanded, blaming the abduction on the negligence of security forces.

Yobe state is in the war theatre in the North East and is within the Area of Responsibility of Operation Lafiya Dole, of the Nigerian military, but Taributu said that the military was withdrawn from Dapchi 21 days before the sad incident of their daughters’ abduction.

“We don’t know why government had to withdraw the army, but we believe that government knows better.

“We cannot, and will not rest over this matter, until we meet four eyes with our daughters,” he said looking very troubled.

On her part, Aisha Alhaji Bukar, a mother whose one daughter was also abducted, was weeping profusely, as she said that since the incidence, she has not being sleeping or eating well.

She said that the abduction of her daughter has turned her to a sorrowful mother, as she has remained very unhappy.

Adamu Gashuama, was another father to one of the abductees, whose daughter also suffered abduction, and Aisha Kundili Bukar, whose daughter was also kidnapped.

The parents were unanimous that the security of their town had been very porous, indicating that they were not surprised that their daughters were carted away cheaply.

One of them averred that as it were, it was very possible for the terrorists to take even mothers, fathers and all their children from Dapchi into captivity unchallenged, because of the poor state of security in the town.

The protest was supported by a coalition of Civil Society Organisations, advocating for women and the girl-child.

Where are the BBOG? I am yet to see a hash tag: #BringBackDapchGirls on Twitter. Are they no longer interested in Dapchi girls (chibok girls reloaded)? Hypocrites.
The recent Dapchi girls kidnapped has finally put to rest the notion already public knowledge that members of BBOG who harassed and insulted GEJ over Chibok abduction as if he was the one that kidnapped them are just a group of used political touts used to serve the political interest of APC. Now that their purpose have been met with the removal of GEJ, they no longer care about abducted victims of boko haram. Who remember the bam girls that were kidnapped by boko in 2016? Have they been released?


Buhari is the chief sponsor and financer of boko haram.

saarumann:
Of course that is the plan. Kidnap some school girls. Keep them for some time. Pay ransom and released hardcore terrorist that killed Nigerian soldiers. Boko haram release them when its getting close to election for cheap politics. Gbam! Buhari wins election. Win win situation for everybody.

No matter how buhari's govt design its script for the rescue of Dapchi girls, it is already public knowledge that Buhari is a boko haram sponsor!

doctokwus:
Before mid 2018,about half of the girls would be 'recovered' and towards the year end with campaigns in full swing and Buhari having been nominated by the APC for a second term,almost all the others,except for about 10-15 would further be recovered.
The girls are safe,they were "abducted" and are just being kept as campaign tools for Buhari's re-election.
