An international Non Governmental Organisation (NGO), Action Aid
Nigeria Wednesday called on the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and other
stakeholders to provide needed support for the President Elect, Gen.
Muhammadu Buhari to seek safe return of the missing Chibok girls.
New Country Director of the NGO, Dr. Ojobo Atuluku made the appeal
during the organisation’s change of leadership briefing in Abuja.Atuluku said it was important for the incoming administration to
provide adequate security to educational facilities in the country.
According to her, it was incredible that the school girls still remained missing a year after being kidnapped.
Atuluku said: “My advise to the new government is to prioritise
bringing back the missing girls. The PDP government should provide
needed supports. It is on our agenda.
It is so incredible that 200 girls
cannot be found. “The political parties should ensure they are brought back to their
family. They should also prioritise security to educational areas.”
She added that the new government should focus on economic development, security and accountability.
However, she stated that Action Aid was committed to giving dignified life to the people.
Earlier, the outgoing Country Director, Dr. Hussaini Abdu described
the NGO as such that was ready to meet yearning of the people.
Abdu said he was able to integrate the NGO from Action Aid Nigeria to
Action Aid International Federation, a status of dual identity. He urged the staffs to provide same support he enjoyed to his successor.
