President Jonathan finally met with the parents of the abducted Chibok girls as well as the rescued girls,today July 22nd at the State House Abuja.
“Anyone who gives you the impression
that we are aloof and that we are not doing what we are supposed to do
to get the girls out is not being truthful.
“Our commitment is not just to get
the girls out, it is also to rout Boko Haram completely from Nigeria.
But we are very, very mindful of the safety of the girls. We want to
return them all alive to their parents. If they are killed in any rescue
effort, then we have achieved nothing,” “Our duty now is to take all
relevant steps to recover our girls alive and our primary interest is
getting them out as safely as possible. I will not want to say much, but
we are doing everything humanly possible to get the girls out.
“This not the time for talking much.
This is the time for action. We will get to the time that we will tell
stories. We will get to the time that we will celebrate and I assure you
that, by God’s grace, that time will come soon,”
The principal of the school, community leaders,security heads and the
Finance minister Ngozi -Okonjo Iweala were present.. It was a close
door meeting and the media was barred from entry...
