The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) is rejoicing with the parents, the Federal Government, President Muhammadu Buhari and the Nigerian Army for the early return of the girls.
The female students of the Government Girls Secondary Technical College (GGSTC) who were abducted by Boko Haram last month were reportedly released this morning. Though five of them were reported to have died, the rest were driven into Dapchi town today.
MURIC charge the Federal Government to ensure adequate protection for all the schools in the insurgency zone. “Defeated, frustrated, bankrupt and hungry, Boko Haram is looking for ways of embarrassing FG, sourcing for food and ransom money. We must never be caught napping again.
“However, we are saddened by the loss of five of the girls. We sympathise with their parents and pray that Allah will grant them Aljannah Firdaus. We also pray that Almighty Allah will give the parents the strength to bear the loss,” said MURIC in a statement.
