US Condemns Kidnap Of School Girls In Yobe By Boko Haram by austonclint(m): 8:51am On Feb 23, 2018
The United States of America has condemned the abduction of over 90 school girls from Government Girls Technical College, Dapchi, Yobe state.

According to reports, the girls were abducted by the dreaded terror sect, Boko Haram.

The girls went missing after sect members attacked Dapchi town in Bursari local government area.

SaharaReporters claims that the school authorities revealed that at least 94 students were missing after a head count conducted on Tuesday, February 20, 2018.

The Spokesperson of the US Department of State, Ms Heather Nauert, at a press briefing on Thursday, said “We are still trying to get all the details about that but we wanted to mention that we condemn in the strongest possible terms the terror attack on a school earlier this week in north-eastern Nigeria.

“The choice of targets including schools, markets and places of worship reflect the brutality of terror organisations.

“The victims in the attacks were girls who were simply seeking an education.”

“We continue to support Nigeria’s efforts to counter the terror group.

We also support Nigeria’s efforts to enable more than two million displaced in the Lake Chad region to return home safely.

“United States continues to provide humanitarian assistance to those who were affected by the violence,” Nauert added.

111 Yobe school girls unaccounted for

The Police Commissioner in Yobe, Abdulmaliki Sumonu, on Wednesday, confirmed that 111 girls were still unaccounted for following Monday’s attack by Boko Haram insurgents.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), the insurgents who attacked the school looted foodstuff, while the staff and students ran into the bush for safety.

Karma is a bi*ch.

APC mocked and turned the chibok tragedy into something to gain political mileage from. They milked it during the campaign demonstrating what they would have done differently...

Today they are faced with the exact same situation and just like everything APC, they have been an abysmal failure.

My sympathy to parents of the abducted girls, some (if not most) must have trusted the lying APC with their votes. I pray your children return safely.

Hopefully, lessons learnt and you will not repeat the mistake come 2019.

I can still remember the 7 point agenda and vision 2020 of late Yaradua. Gej came with the transformation agenda. Every political leader has goals and vision. Can someone please tell me the agenda of President Buhari because I haven't seen or heard of any.


A leader without vision, a leader without agenda. There was a country!
