Published

The visit of the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari(retd.), to Chibok, was put off at the last minute on Tuesday due to the tight schedule and the crowd that opted to follow the former Head of State to the Borno State town.
No fewer than 270 girls from the Government Secondary School, Chibok, were abducted by Boko Haram fighters on April 14, 2014, from the school while preparing for their final examinations.
Director of Media and Publicity, APC Presidential Campaign Organisation, Garba Shehu, confirmed on Tuesday that the general was scheduled to visit the parents of the abducted girls on Tuesday.
“He(Buhari) was scheduled to visit, but the enormity of the crowd (apart from the rally and a visit to the Shehu of Borno) made everything impossible. A date for Chibok is under consideration,” Shehu said.
