Parents of the kidnapped Chibok school girls want case closed, perform funeral rites for missing girls

 

                 Parents of the kidnapped Chibok school girls have said they want the matter closed.

        It has been four months since the unfruitful search for the abducted girls; as a result they have presumed the girls are dead.   
            This position was disclosed yesterday by the #BringOurGirls advocacy group, during its daily sit-out meeting for the rescue of the missing school girls at Unity Fountain, Abuja. 


The parents said they presumed the students to have died for which their funeral rites have already been performed in their (parents’) minds according to their custom. 
They, however, urged the federal government bring the girls’ corpses for honorable burial. 
“All they said they want is their corpses to bury them honourably,” the group said. 
While calling on federal government to double its effort to free the girls, the meeting said only political and military action can rescue our girls, and that is why we do what we are doing to compel that. 
The group added a new slogan #NotWithoutOurDaughters! in response to a question on when  it will  stop the campaign.
