President Jonathan, Other Key Figures Are Yet To Visit Chibok

With one month passed since the abduction of over 200 female students from GGSS Chibok, Borno, President Goodluck Jonathan, Vice President Namadi Sambo and many other key Nigerian figures are yet to visit the school and the town.

The strange reaction to the horrible crime is being added by the fact that the first public statement by the president was three weeks after the kidnap, during the Presidential Media Chat on May 4, 2014.

In one of his speeches, the Presidency also compared the kidnap to the missing Malaysian Airlines, flight MH370, whose debris are yet to be found. However, let’s hope that the cases will be different, because an intensive international search operation aimed at finding 239 passengers of the missing Boeing was stopped, without hope of succeeding

The first high-rank official to come to Chibok was the Governor of Borno State, Kashim Shettima, who visited community on April 21, 2014.

The list of federal officials from FCT Abuja who visited Chibok includes military / service chiefs, the National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, and the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Abubakar. They inspected the troubled town on May 8, 2014. The visit of the military chiefs played an important role, as it may have boosted the moral of the troops deployed in Borno.

In fact, no other senior official from Jonathan’s administration has visited Chibok since then.

Therefore, despite calls by the All Progressives Congress and Nigerians, President Jonathan is yet to visit the school, parents and relatives of the kidnapped girls.

We may also recall a meeting at Aso Rock on May 3, 2014, between the president and the delegation of Borno State, which included the Governor of Borno State, officials, as well as GGSS Chibok Principal and some of the parents. But it is enough?
