Chibok Girls Will Not Return,Don't Deceive Yourselves -Obasanjo

         

Former President Obasanjo express doubt over possibility of the missing Chibok girls returning,despite government assurance of rescue effort being made.
Speaking  at Obafemi Awolowo University staff club event,Ife, he said anyone saying the girls will return is telling lies.

In the event titled, "An Evening with Obasanjo" he blamed Goodluck Jonathan for trivializing the distress call the day the girls were Kidnapped.

“The former president heard about the kidnap 8am in the morning of the abduction but failed to act until 72 hours later and by then it was too late,” Mr. Obasanjo stated.

“Anyone saying they(Chibok girls) will return is telling lies, maybe some of them will return to tell their story.”

According to him, the failure of the Peoples Democratic Party in the last presidential election is a blessing to Nigeria.

“We tried, but with Jonathan, it was best that PDP should fail to save Nigeria,” Mr. Obasanjo said.

He pointed out that one of the low points of the Jonathan administration was his treatment of issues of importance as politics, particularly that of Boko Haram.
