BBOG Laments Continued Neglect Of Issues Of Chibok Girls


With the continued and seemingly neglect of the issues of the Chibok girls both in the country and across the world, the #BringBackOurGirls group has called on the federal government to act fast in order to rescue these girls.

According to the group, while lamenting the level of negligence of the issues of the Chibok girls, noted that Nigerians and all the countries of the world that once stood for the Chibok girls have forgotten about them and moved on as if noting happened.

A member of the group, Arinsola Fisayo stated that it was saddening and depressing that the Chibok girls have stayed for long in the hands of their abductors and called on President Muhammed Buhari to remember the promise he made on the issue of the girls and bring them back to their fanilies who is anxiously waiting for the girls.

Fisayo who called on Nigerians and the world to never forget the abducted girls, also urged Nigerian to continue to pray for the safe return of the girls adding that where human being fails, God will not fail.

“When the president stated that there is no clue to where the girls are, it was saddening. People have moved on and have forgotten the girls. We must never forget, the world should never forget the girls. It is saddened and depressing. But we should not lose hope for the moment we lose hope, we are dead. We must always remember the girls in prayers. If the government fails, the army might fail but God never fails,” she said.

The group also lamented the increasing economic hardship in the country, noting that the impact is beginning to trickle down to the communities, where people are finding it hard to feed and take care of the health.

It would be recalled that one of the leaders of the group, Aisha Yesufu had lamented the hardship across the country, stating that “the economy is bad, we have long fuel queues, high unemployment and under employment. Nigerians are crying. We are not financial independent. We are so dependent on many things. We have to go back to the drawing board. They keep saying that the refineries are working but is it really true? Our leaders need to tell us the truth. That is what we need.

“As a nation, we need to address the fundamentals. We talk about fuel subsidy, who is gaining from it? There are corruptions everywhere. We need to look into them. We need to go back to the basis for us to get our nation back.”

Yesufu however called on Nigerian to do their parts in improving the cause of the nation by supporting and patronising the made in Nigerian goods.

“In our own part, what have we done to improve the country? How many of us support the Nigerian goods? I heard that even toothpick is even imported. We contribute to this problems too. We should support our made in Nigerian goods. It is affecting us. We all need to come down and start getting it right. If we really want to make this nation work, we know that we will be prepared to suffer,” she said.
