Bring Back Our Girls Protesters Blocked From Presidential Villa

The group under the platform of Bring Back Our Girls which has been campaigning for the peaceful return of the 219 Chibok girls kidnapped by Boko Haram more that seven months ago were seen blocked from entering the access road leading to the presidential villa by men of Nigerian police numbering about 20 with their vehicles yesterday.
 The protesters had converged, distributing fliers to motorists and passers-by to remind them of the plight of the 219 Chibok school girls that are still being held captive by the Boko Haram sect.


The enraged protesters raised questions about the action of the Police as well as the efforts of the Federal Government at supporting Internally Displaced Persons and other victims of the insurgency.

They claimed that the Victim Support Fund initiative of President Jonathan should have yielded more notable results in the lives of the terror victims.

One of the Conveners of the movement, Oby Ezekwesili, also said that the Nigerian lawmakers should be “ashamed of themselves for going on break while the Chibok girls are with wicked men in the bush.”
