21 Chibok Girls: Niger Delta Youth Coalition Applaud Buhari, Military

Rowland Odih



The Niger Delta Youth Coalition (NYDC) has commended President Buhari and the Military for the release of 21 Chibok girls by the Boko Haram group.

In a press statement by its National Coordinator, Rowland Odih, he said that President Muhammadu Buhari has further earned the confidence of the Niger Delta Youth and the generality of Nigerians by this finely strategized approach in ensuring that the Chibok girls were released.

“We therefore use this medium to call on all Nigerians irrespective of regional divide, religious inclination or partisan affiliation to give Mr. President and his Team the needed support to ensure the remaining of the Chibok girls are brought back safely and in stable condition. Our prayers for our Military troops should also be intensified”, Odih said.

Excerpt is the full text of the press release:
  
The Niger Delta Youth Coalition has received with patriotic elation the news of the release of 21 of the abducted Chibok girls.

Indeed all true Patriots across Nigeria and empathetic humans the world over where move to chilling tears and pains of unimaginable dimension at the news of the abduction of over 200 hapless students of Chibok (Chibok girls). More unsettling was the gruesome acts of terrorism, murders, proclamation of sovereignty in some parts of Nigeria among other fearsome feats vented on the Nigerian State by the then dreaded terrorist group - Boko Haram.

It is on record that President Muhammadu Buhari has severally reiterated his commitment to obliterate the hitherto larger than life Boko Haram group and recover the kidnapped Chibok girls still in their possession. The Niger Delta Youth Coalition is excited and proud of the sterling feat recorded by Mr. President and his Team with the reuniting of these kidnapped girls with their families and society.

The decimation of the Boko Haram group by the joint combatant and sacrificial efforts of our courageous Nigerians Army who were constantly engaging the group in daring battles, the sustained aerial bombardments of the Nigerian Air Force did a whole lot of damage to the destructive band of Boko Haram Fighters. The strenuous efforts of the Nigerian Police, the Department of State Services and other security Agencies will forever remain in ink of gold. These fused with the support of the citizenry made the release of these Chibok girls possible.

President Muhammadu Buhari has further earned the confidence of the Niger Delta Youth and the generality of Nigerians by this finely strategized approach to release the Chibok girls. We therefore use this medium to call on all Nigerians irrespective of regional divide, religious inclination or partisan affiliation to give Mr. President and his Team the needed support to ensure the remaining of the Chibok girls are brought back safely and in stable condition. Our prayers for our Military troops should also be intensified.

It is our renewed belief that Nigeria will achieve even greater feats on the economic front as we look forward to a greater Nation under the leadership of a visionary President.

God bless Nigeria!!!
