The federal government on Sunday said 110 schoolgirls of
Government Girls Technical School Dapchi, were unaccounted for in
the Boko Haram attack on the school last Monday.
Lai Mohammed, minister of information, disclosed this in
Damaturu after a closed-door meeting between a federal government
delegation, Yobe government, security agencies, community leaders
and parents of the missing schoolgirls.
“It was a meeting between stakeholders to get a first hand
information and, out of the total register of 906 students in
school that day, 110 students are unaccounted,” he said.
The minister said far-reaching decisions were reached, among
which included the deployment of police and Nigeria Civil Defence
Corps (NCDC) to all schools.
He said security agencies were synergising to ensure the rescue
of every student abducted by the insurgents.
“No stone will be left unturned in our determination to rescue
these girls,” the minister assured.
He said the federal, state governments and parents would
collaborate with security agents to work towards the successful
rescue of the students.
Mohammed said the Boko Haram insurgents were being contained and
now looking for soft targets.
He said: “Government will remain focused and resolute in the
fight against insurgency to rescue the students and every Nigerian
in their custody.”
