The BringBackOurGirls Coalition said it would march to the Presidential Villa, Abuja, on Tuesday (today) to engage with President Goodluck Jonathan over the 219 Chibok schoolgirls, who have been in Boko Haram captivity for over 180 days.

The movement said the purpose of the engagement was to convey the urgency for the immediate rescue of the girls and to hear directly from the President the status of the rescue efforts of the security agencies.

The group, in a statement by its Media Coordinator, Rotimi Olawale, on Monday in Abuja, stated that the last 180 days of the girls abduction had been “one of dashed hopes, intense pain and confusion for the families due to the lack of accurate information from the government on the current
The BBOG said some parents of the abducted girls would be part of the march to the Aso Rock Villa and also called on concerned members of the public to join the engagement with the President.

It said that its members would also engage in what it called a ‘walkathon’ on Wednesday, which would involve walking with red ribbons around the embassies of Chad, Cameroon and Niger Republic, as well as the embassies of selected key nations supporting the operation to rescue the girls.

The statement partly read,” In continuation of our Global Week of Action to commemorate the unfortunate six months mark since the abduction of our 219 Chibok girls, We, the #BringBackOurGirls Abuja family, wish to notify the members of the public that we have requested for an appointment and will be marching to meet with our President on October 14, 2014.

“The objective of our march to the Villa is to convey the urgency for the immediate rescue of our girls and to hear directly from our President and the Commander-in-Chief of our Armed Forces the accurate status of the rescue effort for our Chibok girls, whose six months period in captivity remains a source of deep anguish to their parents, Nigerians and people all over the world who believe in our shared humanity.”

The coalition challenged all political leaders, the United Nations, civil society groups, religious leaders, development partners, celebrities and all well-meaning individuals “to come out in large number during the Global Week of Action and raise their voices to demand renewed actions for the immediate rescue of the schoolgirls.”

One month is enough to change a person's destiny, 6months..... Those lasses would never be the same again... Matching after 180days would still do nothing to better their plights dou.

They should rather storm Sambisa forest

Poor girls in the hands of pedophiles. Dehumanizing those little girls.

Nonsense the only thing they know how to do is to March to aso rock or Abuja as if the girls are in aso rock or Abuja. if they really want those girls to be released they should march to sambisa forest and rescue them.

For chibok girls.

OK TO THE REAL COMMENT: WHAT IMPACT WILL THIS MARCH MAKE? THE POSSIBLE OUTCOME WILL BE A BUNCH OF PEOPLE SUSTAINING INJURIES FROM TEARGAS, STAMPEDE AND WHAT NOT. NIGERIA IS YET TO DEVELOP INTO A SAFE HAVEN WHERE FREEDOM OF SPEECH IS GUARANTEED WITHOUT ONE BEING OPPRESSED BY THE POWERS THAT BE..SO WHATS THE POINT?

THEY WILL BE FLOGGED LIKE KIDS IF THEY VENTURE TO MAKE THIS MARCH OR BETTER STILL, AREA BOYS WILL BE USED TO CAUSE MAYHEM AND GIVE THE THE SECURITY FORCES THE NEEDED EXCUSE TO FLOG THEM, NIGERIA MY DEAR ;COUNTRY.....WHAT A TWISTED ONE!!!!!!!!

I BELIEVE THAT THESE GIRLS HAVE ALREADY BEEN BRAIN-WASHED. GEJ WAS TOO SLOW TO TAKE ACTION ON THESE MATTER, DID HE EVEN BELIEVE IN FIRST INSTANCE?
