It has been over 90 days since the Chibok Girls were abducted, some key officials feel it is about time we consider negotiating with the deadly sect as an option not submission.
The Speaker of the House of Representative Aminu Tambuwal who met with Members of BringBackOurGirls campaigners on Tuesday has asked the Presidency to negotiate with the Boko Haram sect if that is what it takes to bring the girls home safely. Hon. Tambuwal said
"If negotiations is what would bring back for example Chibok girls, for Goodness sake, lets negotiate and save the children. Negotiation is not submitting......you are not just submitting, you are not. It is a strategy. So let's get these girls out and then if you want to confront them you go ahead and confront them and take them head on but whatever we need to do, we must do as a government to bring back these girls safely & alive" he said.
The speaker also urged the campaigners not to relent in their efforts and should also demand accountability from the government.
