Press Release
Abuja,
May 12th, 2014 - The Progressive Governors Forum, PGF is
unequivocally committed to working with the Federal Government, local
communities and international partners to ensure that all the school girls
criminally abducted from the Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, Borno
state, and other places are returned to their families
safe and sound.
The
abduction of these innocent school children is an assault on our nation, an
attack on civility and constitutionalism and colossal descent to barbarism,
which is unacceptable and should be combatted by all patriots. We are therefore
very grateful to all Nigerians and international community for standing by the
innocent students, their parents, Chibok community and the people and
government of Borno State.
We will
support the parents and government of Borno State to ensure that our girls all
receive treatment for the physical and psychological trauma they might have
suffered in captivity. We shall also undertake the rebuilding of the Government
Girls Secondary School, Chibok to ensure that the students are able to resume
normal life once the girls are rescued.
More
than ever before, we are resolute in our determination to move our dear nation
forward. Successful fight against terrorism is a critical precondition for
stability and constitutional governance. Together with all progressive and
patriotic Nigerians we will join hands to restore peace all over Nigeria.
We have
also decided to support all the victims of Nyanya bomb blast with a total sum
of N100 million.
HE Owelle
Rochas Okorocha,
Chairman,
Progressive Governors Forum
