Members of the Bring Back Our Girls (BBOG) group have demanded the rescue of the remaining over 100 girls that were abducted by Boko Haram terrorist group in Chibok community of Borno State.

The BBOG members who took to the streets of Abuja in a peaceful march on Tuesday were received by a team of government officials at the Presidential Villa.

One of the conveners of the group, Oby Ezekwesili, told the team that the march was to remind the Federal Government to ensure that security operatives rescue the 113 girls still in Boko Haram captivity.

Special Adviser to the President on Political Matters, Babafemi Ojodu, who addressed the group, urged them to be calm.

He assured the protesters that efforts are on to rescue the remaining school girls and restore peace in the Northern region of the country.

The protest is coming almost three months after the Federal Government announced the release of 82 girls, following a prisoner swap with the terrorist group.

Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity Garba Shehu had said the girls were released in exchange for some Boko Haram suspects held by the authorities.

President Muhammadu Buhari had also met with the rescued girls on May 7 before proceeding to the United Kingdom for a medical follow-up.

On July 25, the United Nations asked the Nigeria Government to increase its efforts in rescuing all women and girls abducted by the terrorists and ensure that the girls complete their education without stigma.

The UN also advised the government to prioritise the rehabilitation and re-integration of the girls into the society, while their families should be given access to post-traumatic care.
