It is one year since over 200 female students were kidnapped
from the Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State. They are still
missing as the Bring Back Our Girls campaigners mark the first anniversary.
What word do you have for them?
On April 14, 2014, the dreaded Boko Haram
insurgent sect, reportedly abducted more than 200 girls from the
Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, now famously
called the`Chibok girls`.
Though
many Nigerians did not and have still not believed that there was any
abduction, seeing it as a gimmick by the opposition to discredit the
regime of President Goodluck Jonathan, others like the Bring Back Our
Girls campaigners and people from the state have insisted that the girls
were really kidnapped.
It is now one year after the abduction and the girls have not been rescued despite promises by the government.
The
family of the girls have been traumatized as they do not know if these
girls are still alive. There have been insinuations that some of the
girls have been turned into sex slaves, suicide bombers or married off
to the sect members.
What do you have to say?
