The European Union High Representative, Federica Mogherini
has described the release of 82 Chibok girls as a “glimmer of hope” that all
the Boko Haram abductees would regain their freedom.
Mogherini, in a statement on Sunday, said EU’s thoughts are
with the released girls as they rebuild their lives.
“This news is a glimmer of hope that one day all the kidnapped girls will once again return home, live freely and have a peaceful future.“Our thoughts are with them as they have the chance to rebuild their lives and also with those that remain captive,” the statement said.
Mogherini said the Nigerian government must ensure that the
perpetrators of this heinous act are brought to justice.
The union, Mogherini said, would continue to “stand shoulder
to shoulder” with Nigeria in fighting terrorism and in its tireless work to
free the girls.
“The EU also continues to be fully committed to supporting humanitarian, development and reconstruction work in Nigeria,” it added.Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
