The Bring Back Our Girls campaigners in Abuja have launched a formal six weeks count-down for the rescue of the abducted Chibok girls who have been in captivity since April 2014.
According to the group, the countdown will help them monitor the activities of the multinational forces toward the eradication of the insurgents and the rescue of the Chibok girls from their captors.
The group expressed confidence in government’s ability to restore security in the north east and rescue the school girls.
The Chairman of Chibok community in Abuja, Hosea Tsambido, also confirmed that feeling of security having returned to his community in the last few weeks.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had postponed the general elections from February 14 by six weeks, at the request of the military to be allowed to improve the security situation in the north east before the elections are conducted.
Having granted this request, Nigerians including the #BBOG group are hoping that words would be matched with actions and peace would be restored to the troubled areas.'
