President Muhammadu Buhari should receive no claps for the release of the abducted Kankara schoolboys. A #BringBackOurGirls campaigner, Oby Ezekwesili has said.
On Thursday, December 17, 344 abducted students of the Government Science Secondary School (GSSS) Kankara in Katsina state were released after spending six days in kidnappers den.
Ezekwesili, in a Channels Television interview, said the incompetence of the government was the cause of the insecurity in the land which exposed the Kankara schoolboys to kidnappers, hence Buhari can’t be applauded for the release of the schoolboys.
“We can’t congratulate a government that created a problem and then says it has solved it. The President should be disgusted with what happened. They deserve no clap whatsoever. @MBuhari & his government should not take this country for a ride.
“For us to congratulate a government that created a problem and said it solved it? We shouldn’t be doing that. The society should learn how to hold people accountable. The President should be disgusted with what happened, not commending himself. What is he clapping for? Those children were put in harm’s way. And now he said he’s rescued them? Maybe the President sent the children on an excursion to terrorists so they can release children at will to him,” she said.
