Jonathan, Governors Give Marching Order: Rescue The 200 Girls

By -
The enlarged security meeting convened by President Goodluck Jonathan on Thursday rose with a directive to the already over-stretched Nigeria military to do everything possible to rescue the schoolgirls abducted by the dreaded Boko Haram insurgents last week in Chibok, Borno State.

But how exactly will the military go into the Sambisa Forest and rescue these girls from a Boko Haram that is in a sense fully armed? Anyway, anything is possible so lets keep hoping for the best.

On of those who spoke after the meeting was Ekiti State governor, Kayode Fayemi. He said:
“We recognised that the issue of the moment is the abduction of schoolgirls in Chibok. We resolved that the girls should be retrieved and protected by the military. The military assured us that they are doing everything to achieve this. 
“We also touched on anti-poverty strategy, soft approach in addition to hard approach. We talked about the importance of ensuring capacity building of media organisations because of the sensitivity of the issue."
The meeting also flayed Governor Murtala Nyako of Adamawa State over a memo he sent to his colleagues in the North, accusing the Federal Government of genocide against the region. All at the meeting, were thus urged to avoid inflammatory comments that could compound the deteriorating security situation in Nigeria.

The meeting was attended by all the state governors, heads of all military and paramilitary agencies. It also had the President of CAN, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor and the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar III.

Minister of Defence, Aliyu Gusau, said the meeting agreed that the Government should collaborate with state and local authorities as well as all Nigerians to see that the security challenges were curtailed.

“The conclusion is that Federal Government will do everything in its power in collaboration with states and local governments and everybody to see that we put it under control. Security is everybody’s business; it is not only the responsibility of the government. Every individual should be security conscious,” Gusau said.
