Even as some groups of people risk their lives to
protest for the rescue of the Chibok girls, Christian
women in Nigeria have denounced the abduction of the Chibok girls in Borno
state over two years ago.
The women, under the aegis of Women’s Wing of the
Christian Council of Nigeria (WOWICCN), on Friday, September 9 declared the
abduction and the consequent move by the Bring Back Our Girls (BBOG) group to
get government to rescue them as ruse.
Vanguard
quotes the national president of the group, Rev. Mrs. Omatsola Williams as
saying during an interview with newsmen at the second Bi-ennial national
convention of the WOWICCN tagged; ‘Women; Goodly Heritage’ in Abuja, that the
matter is now being used to promote selfish interests.
“For me
o’, I don’t believe that there is Chibok girl. We should not use the life of
people to play ‘Jambo’ (game) at all. Some people are using this to make money.
Ah ha! How tick is the Sambisa forest is it that people cannot penetrate? “Food
for thought; when you come to Niger Delta Area, there is no secret. Let
Nigerians do not toil with Nigerians, because before they know it, women will
arise and they will see the other side of women,” she said.
Her words echo those of a group that is in
support of President Muhammadu Buhari, which says that the group is distracting
the president rather than helping. You can also read all what the group also
said about BBOG Ezekwesili in shock as #BringBackOurGirls is declared scam.
