Chibok Girl"s Parents Shuns Meeting With President Goodluck Jonathan. by publicenemy(m): 10:06pm On Jul 15, 2014 |
Nigeria's president has accused activists of "playing politics" after his meeting with parents of the abducted schoolgirls was called off. The #BringBackOurGirls group should be ashamed of manipulating "the victims of terrorism", he said. Mr Jonathan had been due to hold his first meeting with some of the girls' parents on Tuesday. Islamist group Boko Haram captured more than 200 girls during a raid on their boarding school in Chibok in April. Mr Jonathan had been widely criticised for failing to meet distraught parents and not doing enough to rescue the girls. 'Psychological terrorism' #BringBackOurGirls was a global campaign launched on social media to secure the release of the girls. Mr Jonathan agreed to the meeting on Monday following an appeal by Pakistani rights campaigner Malala Yousafzai. Mr Jonathan had planned to meet 12 parents and five girls who escaped shortly after being captured but the parents withdrew at the last minute without giving any reason. "Unfortunately, political forces within the Nigerian chapter of Bring Back Our Girls have decided to take this opportunity to play politics with the situation and the grief of the parents and the girls. They should be ashamed of their actions," he said in a statement. The girls have now spent more than three months in captivity "Those who would manipulate the victims of terrorism for their own benefit are engaging in a similar kind of evil: Psychological terrorism," he added. Mr Jonathan's spokesman Doyin Okupe said the president was "extremely distraught". "He cannot understand this. He cannot fathom this - that Nigeria's mothers will do this type of thing for children," Mr Okupe said. Nigeria is due to hold presidential elections next year. Mr Jonathan has not yet declared his candidature, but speculation is rife that he intends to run for another term. Last year, he declared a state of emergency in the north-eastern states of Borno, Adamawa and Yobe, which are worst affected by the insurgency. All there are under opposition control. New York-based Human Rights Watch says more than 2,000 civilians have been killed in Nigeria this year by Boko Haram. The deaths occurred in around 95 separate attacks in more than 70 towns and villages in the north- east, where Boko Haram launched its insurgency in 2009. m.bbc.com/news/world-africa-28318259 |

Another Proof that there are no missing girls. If the same parents will snub the most powerful man in the land who can see to the safe return of their daughters then I believe there are no girls abducted. As a parent I will do anything in my power and seek any help no matter how small to see that my kids are safe talk more of that of the President's. 5 Likes |

GBTYO: Another Proof that there are no missing girls.Does he need to meet with the parents to ensure the girls are rescued safely from the bandits Why does it have to take a 17yr old foreigner and over two months to convince mr president to meet with the parents?? This was a step he shouldave taken from the very beginning of this problem, rather, he choose to live in denial, attributing it all to "his enemies". Sometimes I wonder why God has cursed us with such rulers as these. Soo soo damn unfortunate. 6 Likes |

The world would be laughing at Nigeria and the kind of pple we seemingly vote into office. It was a stupid thing to do. So the president couldn't pay that visit long ago or take more positive stance in bringing the girls ? It took a small girl to talk sense to him? Its just a damn shame. Insult to rationality. The speed at which they rushed to tell the world and paint the campaigners of the rescue of chibok girls show this admin dispositions to its own failures. That visit was long overdue. This is really a kindergarten admin! 1 Like |

cbrass: I am a parent and if God forbids my daughter is abducted by some bearded goat farkers for use as a sex slave I will not sleep and will do all i can to see that she is returned. For these ediots to be playing politics at the detriment of their children's safe return shows that there was never any abduction in the first place. This is where you must focus and not if I am a parent or not 2 Likes |

this is my problem with some northern christians. Always cowering at the instruvtion of muslim leaders like slaves. Gej wants to see you and you are formong champion. They should go and rescue their daughters themselves if they can. Malala or whatever her name is, should go and fvck herself from wherever she came from. They have been manipulated completely. *insult me and receives ten times of your insults* |

I think the timing was wrong. Its about 3 months and the President is just arranging a meeting. This dude is just a rude shock. I must not fail to mention Ezekwesili. She is sure behind the resistance from the parents to meet with the president. I think she must stop politicizing everything. It is annoying when people want to use any opportunity to gain cheap notice. Both parties must stop playing politics with sensitive issues. This is the problem with Nigeria. |

Culled from one of the commentators on The Punch website. I think it is actually President Jonathan who should be ASHAMED of himself because he waited 3 months for a 17 years old girl young enough to be his granddaughter to come and teach him the technicalities of statecraft. It took the intervention of a 17 year old girl Malala after 3 months of the abduction of these innocent girls before Jonathan agreed to meet with the parents and the escapee girls. So if Malala didn't come, Jonathan wouldn't have thought of meeting the parents?. Well meaning Nigerians have asked the President to meet with the parents of the girls even if to reassure them but he ignored them since Jonathan doesn't even believe that any girl was abducted. Jonathan and his sympathizers still believe that the abduction was fake and stage managed to discredit him and stop him from reelection as confirmed by the bully spokesperson Okupe. Even when the bringbackourgirls heroins took some of the girls during demonstration to Jonathan on 2 occasions they were dispersed with teargas and prevented from entering Aso rock. Jonathan said he will not see anybody and instead sent the so called secretary Anyim Pius Anyim. I SALUTE THE PARENTS OF THESE GIRLS FOR IGNORING JONATHAN AND THEY SHOULD NOT ATTEND ANY MEETING WITH JONATHAN BECAUSE IT IS ONLY A WASTE OF TIME. Even when the world has come to terms with the abduction of the girls and the confirmation from Boko haram that indeed the girls are with them and with video evidence and confirmed by the parents that they saw their kids in that video some of the parents even died from high blood pressure after watching their daughters in that video still JONATHAN AND PATIENCE DO NOT BELIEVE THAT ANY GIRL WAS ABDUCTED. This is a shame. If Jonathan has to wait for Malala to teach him what to do regarding meeting the parents then what he is telling the whole world in effect is that his grandchildren are the ones teaching him statecraft on every policy and that's why he is clueless and gets his policies wrong..... Well said..... 1 Like |

Jonathan the fool, what has he been doing all these months. He had to wait till a pakistani 17 year old girl tell him the right thing. Very useless man. The only thing the mothers want is immediate freedom for their girls and not sweet talks. |
