The Borno State Governor, Alhaji Kashim Shettima, on Wednesday gave an inter-faith and civil society group the mandate to search for schools for the 57 rescued Chibok schoolgirls so that they can continue their education.
Shettima also assigned the Kaduna-based Inter-Faith Mediation Centre whose leaders were in Maiduguri with some medical experts the task of counseling the 57 freed Chibok girls.
He said this on Wednesday when the leadership of the centre visited him in Maiduguri.
The governor said they should search for good schools for the rescued girls in Abuja or other areas, noting that his administration was determined to do everything within its power to give quality education to the traumatised girls.
Shettima disclosed that the Borno State government had earmarked N100m for the education of the schoolgirls, adding that he was optimistic that those still being held would be released.
He said, “Our hearts go to all the rescued girls and to those still in captivity of the so-called Boko Haram. We are willing to do everything within our power to give them quality education, including those still being held captive. We are willing to rehabilitate all of them to bring them out of their trauma.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
