 All right welcome back it's still the breakfast and plus TV Africa you just watched the conversation we had on Good Friday it is a good day but some family members are not actually having a good Friday they're not only having a good time because it's been 80 years and their loved ones are still you know trapped in captivity you know we talked about it when we introduced the show that's Chibo cause over a hundred of them are still in captivity and the parents are saying that the government is not showing genuine interest concerning them it used to be like the major stories it used to be you know on board captions across you know newspapers and television radio stations it used to be a very topical issue it's in eight years right now and it's as though the conversation is actually being muted to some extent not much has been said about I understand that we've had more issues of insecurity and kidnapping in recent times we've had the dapchi kidnapping we've had just not too long ago two days ago so we had you know girls and been kidnapped in a college of health science in Zamfra state it goes on and on but we still have to remember that these girls are yet in captivity even after eight years sadly April the 14th 2014 276 school girls were abducted by Boko Haram from schools I mean the secondary school in Chibok town that's in the North East and then some of the girls if you remember managed to escape while others were released following campaign efforts and government negotiations government will obviously they don't negotiate but that's not the case now despite all efforts to free all the people's 109 just like you have mentioned all the girls through many captivity and Leisha Ibu is also still part of you know this persons at least 16 have been killed so far that's according to the report now since then at abduction thing is the fact that 80 is after nothing has been done we would say nothing because it feels like we have moved on we have forgotten about them we've also forgotten that these children 109 of them belong to families and you can only imagine the pain and the trauma and how it's so difficult for parents or their parents to be alive and the thing that these children are nowhere to be found now according to reports this has been made available between December 2020 and October as a 2021 1436 children school children and 17 teachers have been abducted from schools in Niger but I'm groups men so it feels like we haven't even learned anything that's another thing also we you have an experience and it's okay because you were not proactive but one would think that you would take proactive measures to ensure that there's no real currents but this constantly happened and so you see have more children that have been in captivity and this has also forced a lot of schools in the north about a thousand one thousand five hundred schools in the northern schools is then you have this cool some schools have been shut down truly and so education in that part of in this part of the country is also being threatened and it's sad for government I will constantly say this and that's the basic things these are basic things that you expect over anyone like I always make this reference to the fact that if you have a father I mean if you are a parent or you have a family the basic thing it would not be rocket science for the children to be asking for basic things oh then it shelter then a clothing then eat you know food and of course education would just come in now and government has a primary responsibility of protecting lives and properties and and government has failed and the one that's even more surprising is the fact that when this government came into power we're talking about the president Mohammed Buhari's administration when they came into power top on the list was the fact that they're boasted and they're proposed to Nigerians how that we're going to solve the issue of security and insorgency and looking at this what has been done I don't even think that the Nigerian government still remembers that you still have these kids still missing and what are we doing to ensure that this doesn't happen therefore despite several initiatives that's been put out it's so difficult it is so painful and really our hats with the parents and this children who have been away from their family for eight years you can only imagine the pain and the trauma that they would be subjected to some of them would have been you know gone through several experiences way trauma you can only tell eight years is a lot of time eight years is like another term for government it's actually to term so you do for it is really a so it's really a time but our government and our people have really this children yes we'll just let the conversation you know lie for some for just now and let's just keep on pushing and reminding government to do the needful and rescue these children safe in all of this a safe school initiative you know has actually come out but we will also hear reports of this free Chibo girls saying that they have been treated with contempt in school a whole lot happening you know at the parent actually demanding to Lisa but we'll take a break right now and we'll give you an update on the UEFA champions legal Nigerian legal just some sports generally in a moment to join us again
