We don’t know when Chibok girls will be rescued – VP, Osinbajo

Vice-President, Yemi Osinbajo on Wednesday said the current administration cannot ascertain when the abducted Chibok school girls would be rescued.

Osinbajo, while speaking at a roundtable meeting in Abuja, called on Nigerians to exercise patience with the Federal Government, stressing that the return of the girls remains a priority, though cannot tell when.”

According to the Vice President, the military has been charged to do everything possible to ensure that the girls are reunited with their families.

He said, “At every security council meeting that I have attended, the president has always been concerned about Chibok girls. He thinks of how this can be done quickly,” he said.

“But it’s a very delicate issue and we cannot say we can deal with it next week. Every rescue attempt must take the safety of the girls into consideration.

“From the security reported we get, we will be able to bring back the girls but we must exercise some caution and patience and not sound as if it can be done but it’s not being done.”
