A statement from the Media Office of Senate President quoted Saraki as saying, “I speak on behalf of all Nigerians who truly care, mothers and fathers especially, who cannot imagine the pain of not knowing whether one’s abducted child is alive or not.
“I know that this government is continuing to explore all options to secure the release of the remaining girls, we will continue to support the administration’s efforts in every way that we can.
“They are our daughters. We will not stop looking for them. We will not give up the fight until they return back home to us.”
In a separate statement by Dogara’s Special Adviser on Media and Public Affairs, Mr. Turaki Hassan, the Speaker said that prayers for the parents and families of the girls would not cease until they are safely back.
The statement read, “No matter how long the abduction occurred, as parents, we feel duty-bound to never let the campaign for their release fade out.
“The fate that has befallen our daughters is a symptom of the many challenges that the girl-child faces not only on the Africa continent, but around the world, and it is high time that we, as leaders, played our respective roles in protecting the girl-child and her right to education.
“While we commend the military and security agencies for their gallantry in stemming the North-East imbroglio and for rescuing thousands of captives from the dreaded Boko Haram sect, we must also, once more, reiterate the need for the remaining Chibok Girls to be freed from captivity and reunited with their families.”
