Find his brilliant statement after the cut.
“Today we remember the kidnapping of 276 girls
from a school in Chibok one year ago. This crime
has rightly caused outrage both in Nigeria and
across the world.
“Today is a time to reflect on the pain and suffering of the victims, their friends and families. Our thoughts and prayers, and that of the whole Nigerian Nation, are with you today.
“I want to assure all of them, and particularly
the parents, that when my new Administration
takes office at the end of May, we will do
everything we can to defeat Boko Haram. We will
act differently from the Government we replace:
we hear the anguish of our citizens and intend to
respond accordingly.
“This new approach must also begin with honesty.
We do not know if the Chibok girls can be rescued.
Their whereabouts remain unknown. As much as I
wish to, I cannot promise that we can find them.
But I say to every parent, family member and friend of the children that my Government will do
everything in its power to bring them home.
“What I can pledge, with absolute certainty, is that starting on the first day of my Administration Boko Haram will know the strength of our collective will and commitment to rid this nation of terror, and bring back peace and normalcy to all the affected areas.
“Boko Haram” means “Western Education is
Sinful”. When they are defeated militarily, as they will be, we will ensure our citizens in the
affected areas have improved educational
opportunities as a direct counterbalance to Boko
Haram’s twisted ideology. In particular we will
educate ever more young girls ensuring they are
empowered as citizens of Nigeria.
“Let us use this anniversary to remind each other
that the attack on Chibok was an attack on the
dreams and aspirations of our young people.
“We stand united in our pledge to resist terror in
Nigeria– not just through military means but also
through the power of opportunity and the hope of
a better future for all”.
