Six hundred (600) days after their children went missing; parents of over 200 Chibok schoolgirls abducted in Borno, northeast of Nigeria have finally met with Nigeria’s president, Muhammadu Buhari.
The parents who went against all odds to express their
grievance marched through Abuja, Nigeria’s capital on Thursday morning with
banners to communicate their predicament and the seemingly slow response of the
government to their plight.
It would
be recalled that Islamist sect, Boko Haram, kidnapped the girls 600 days ago
from their school in Borno.
The
whereabout of the girls remain largely unknown although there are been claims
by Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau that some of the girls have been sold
into marriage.
The fight
to completely finish off Boko Haram is ongoing, talks about the return of the
girls has however been a worry.
