In its continuous push for the release of abducted Chibok school girls in Borno State, northeast, Nigeria, the pressure group ‘BBOG’ on Monday, faulted the Buhari’s administration over its silence on the remaining girls in captivity.
In a statement made available on Monday, the group said, “Today marks 1,336 days too long since the tragic abduction of our # ChibokGirls from Government Secondary School, Chibok, on the 14th of April, 2014.
“While we appreciate the return of 106 of our #ChibokGirls, we accept no justification for the continued captivity of the 113 #ChibokGirls that are yet to return for 906 days under the watch of President Muhammadu Buhari.
“It has been far too long without any further progress or tangible evidence that sustained and results-focused effort is being made to rescue them.
“It does sadly appear as though the Presidency considers the return of the last batch of 82 #ChibokGirls as the conclusion of the #ChibokGirls tragedy.
“We vehemently oppose any such stance and impression the public is reading from the absolute detachment of the President and the Federal Government to the pain of the families of the remaining#ChibokGirls.
“All our missing 113 Girls and all other known victims of terrorists abduction must be rescued immediately by the Federal Government.
“As a movement, we have continued to keep our promise and commitment to advocating for our #ChibokGirls.
“We continue to sit daily at the Unity Fountain and in Lagos for all of 1,321 days as at today.
“The Government cannot rest from its own pledge to rescue our #ChibokGirls with even greater urgency and results.

Fayose in a statement by Special Assistant to the Ekiti State Governor on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka and made available to DAILY POST, likened Fayemi’s speech against impunity to a case of “corruption condemning corruption.” Faymi was at the event quoted as saying that Nigeria must say no to impunity and eliminate the syndrome of ‘sacred cows’ for the fight against corruption. Reacting however, Fayose said the minister, who at the event tried to proffer solution to corruption in Nigeria was like robbers offering solution to armed robbery even after refusal to appear before commission of inquiry to probe his years as Ekiti governor. He said, “Fayemi’s comment that Nigeria must say no to impunity and eliminate the syndrome of ‘sacred cows’ for the fight against corruption to succeed is funny. “Fayemi offering solution to the corruption fight is like notorious armed robbers like Oyenusi and Shina Rambo giving lecture on how to stop armed robbery.” “It
