How Borno Governor caused kidnap of Chibok schoolgirls – WAEC



“The Borno state government also refused to relocate the students from Chibok to safer places like Maiduguri.”
The kidnap of over 250 schoolgirls in Chibok may not have occurred if the Borno State Government had heeded the advice of an examination body, fresh facts have emerged.
Aware of the poor security situation in Borno and worried about the safety of students, the West African Examination Council, WAEC, declined to conduct its Senior School Certificate Examination in unsafe parts of Borno, including Chibok.

The truth about 234 Chibok schoolgirls

“There can be no keener revelation of a society’s soul than the way in which it treats its children”
– Nelson Mandela
Over and above every act of irresponsibility to the nation and others in Nigeria, nothing tells of the extent of the erosion of our values like our collective attitude to our children. We are a country that has currently lost every capacity for shock.  Nothing shocks Nigerians again, not even the abduction of over 200 girls from the GovernmentGirls Secondary School in Chibok, Borno State and the inability to find them after two weeks.  It is a sad commentary that should make us all bow our heads in penitence. Apparently, we are a country with a dead soul.
