It is now Ten months since the abduction of over 200 girls in Chibok town, Borno state. Going by the song “four week, make one month”, it has been Ten months since their abduction ( 280 days). But going by the counts using actual days of each month since April 14, then by 2nd of February, that will be Ten months since their abduction (194 days). But if using the Average of 30 days, then by 8 of February when the presidential debate is expected, then that will mark Ten months since their abduction.
Just like the Aboke girls abducted by the LRA in 1994, Chibok girls are gradually been forgotten as election is drawing nearer, and the public attention has been diverted to the much discussed, controversial Presidential scheduled of 14 of February. The attention of the world is now on Nigeria now. A prosperous, secured and stable Nigeria means a stable Africa. While a chaotic, anarchist Nigeria is no doubt a serious concern to Africa and global security.
While insecurity is still at its zenith, the government should intensify its effort to make sure that those girls and all other Nigerians abducted are set free, protected and secured. The parents and relatives of people killed, abducted, wounded, uprooted fro their homes should not despair and loss hope, God willing, this shall come to pass and things will return normal.
Violence should have no more place in Nigeria. Whether pre or post election violence should not be allowed to happen or should it be encouraged. A road to a secured Nigeria can be through our votes. Disciplined, upright leaders should be elected at all levels irrespective of party affiliations. That will see us through and make our motherland proud and allow it to take its rightful place in the community of nations.
The counting, prayers and protest will not stop until #Chibok girls are set free, peace return to Nigeria, and until when Nigerians can sleep with both eyes closed.
