#BringBackOurGirls: 7 Questions for PDP and Labaran Maku


Please someone should tell Mr. Labaran Maku that I am not a member of the All Progressive Congress (APC). This clarification is necessary because it seems the federal government of Nigeria sees every one who opposes it as a member of the opposition.It is really ludicrous when the government is always shouting fro the rooftops that anyone who disagrees with it is a member of the APC. Or is is not ridiculous for the Minister of Information to say on national TV that 90% of those behind the BringBackOurGirls Campaign are members of one political party? Don't we all know that Madam Oby Ezekwesili is not a member of APC? Don't we all know that Dr Joe Okei-Odumakin is not a member of APC? Don't we all know that Japheth Omojuwa does not belong to any political party? Is Hon. Dino Melaye's involvement enough to conclude that all the BringBackOurGirls campaigners are APC members? Going by the government's logic, Michelle Obama is an APC member. David Cameron, UK Prime Minister is a member of APC. Alicia Keys must also be a member of APC. Does that not sound absurd? Definitely not to the PDP government.

So questions for the PDP-led government are:

(1) Is PDP not concerned about the missing Chibok girls?
(2) Is it wrong for APC to ask that the girls be brought back safely?
(3) Is it because the government thinks APC is behind the #BringBackOurGirls campaign that the government has been tardy in its response to the abduction of these girls?
(4) Why has the government failed to rescue the missing girls till now?
(5) Hope the government of Nigeria will not justify itself if it eventually fails to bring back these girls (intact) by saying the U.S. and some other countries were also involved in the search? So if foreign help could fail, why blame the Nigerian government?
(6) How much did it cost government to organise its own Bring Back Our girls Campaign? (7) Has the PDP government left the search for the girls to God? Or didn't Labaran Maku say government was expecting God to bring the girls out? 


Please, Mr. Labaran Maku, when will I get answers to my questions? Whether you answer my question or not, I must let you know that it is of utmost importance to #BringBackOurGirls alive and healthy.

I will like to leave you with this video of Paul Kagame talking about African leaders. You will find it interesting.

  1. Pity! No nation thrives when every issue is politicised. It is unfortunate that Labaran Maku could not offer something better than accusing the opposition over an issue that affects human lives. My charge to all is to keep talking about the Chibok girls. The communication with the deaf requires a painstaking gesticulation!(Ko ko ko la nran ifa aditi).We want the girls back alive.

  2. I gave up on this govt long ago. Anything that doesn't affect 2015 and looting with reckless abandonment is thrivial to them. As for Labaran and his irks,I don't waste my precious time listening to tjeir senseless and tactless talk.
