160 Chibok Parents, 57 Escapee Girls Arrive Abuja to Meet President Jonathan; See Letter Of Meeting

Almost 100 days after the over 200 schoolgirls were kidnapped from their hostel at Government Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, some 160 parents of the abducted girls as well as 57 of the students who escaped from their captors, will meet with President Goodluck Jonathan today at the Presidential Villa, Abuja. See initial letter of meeting below:

The visit is coming on the heels of the botched meeting of last week, wherein nine parents and some of the escapee girls had shunned the invitation of President Jonathan to meet with them, in the aftermath of the visit of 17-year-old Pakistani girl child education activist, Malala Yousafzai.

The Chibok students were abducted on April 14. It will be 100 days tomorrow since they have been in the enclave of their captors, the Boko Haram terrorist group.
