Buhari to host freed Chibok girls

The 21 Chibok girls who were recently released will Wednesday meet with President Muhammadu Buhari at the state house, Abuja.

“President Buhari will, this afternoon, receive the 21 released #ChibokGirls and their families at the State House”, said the presidency.

The meeting will hold after the conclusion of the ongoing federal executive council meeting.

Buhari was en route Germany on an official visit last week Thursday when the girls regained freedom from the captivity of Boko Haram.

Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo met with the Chibok girls shortly after their release at the Department of State Services (DSS) headquarters in Abuja.

Amina Ali Nkeki, the first of the missing Nigerian schoolgirls to be rescued, was similarly hosted by Buhari in May 2016.

“Although we cannot do anything to reverse the horrors of her past, federal government can and will do everything possible to ensure that the rest of her life takes a completely different course.

“Amina will receive the best care that the Nigerian government can afford. We will ensure that she gets the best medical, psychological, emotional and whatever other care she requires to make a full recovery and be reintegrated fully into society”, Buhari had said.
