Ayodele Fayose, governor of Ekiti
state, says the manner in which the Dapchi schoolgirls were abducted and
returned is a clear demonstration that the federal government is fooling
itself.
In a statement on Thursday, the
governor said the whole process was shrouded in secrecy, raising more questions
than answers.
He said President Muhammadu Buhari
has failed Nigerians in the area of security which was one of the three
cardinal points in the campaign of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
“One wonders the basis for the
party to applaud President Muhammadu Buhari’s claim of bringing back home those
innocent Dapchi girls that ought not to have been abducted in the first place
if not for the government’s laxity,” he said.
“Most importantly, that the
abduction and return of the girls took place without resistance is a sign that
the APC-led federal government has lost the war against insurgency, the basis
for which it came to power. It is also a clear indication that Nigerians can no
longer depend on the clueless government for their safety.
“The removal of military
checkpoints in Dapchi ahead of the abduction, as confirmed by Ibrahim Geidam,
governor of Yobe state, clearly shows the complicity of the federal government
and some individuals profiting from the whole saga.
“Despite security alerts by the
locals, the military looked the other way, which necessitated the damning
report by the Amnesty International. To the amazement of Nigerians, 24 hours
after, the abductors brought back the girls. I believe the true story of this
Dapchi abduction will be told one day.”
The governor, however, rejoiced
with the families of the returned Dapchi girls and sympathised with those of
the deceased.
“It is obvious that this present
APC operates by propaganda. I urge Nigerians not to lose hope as help is on the
way,” he said.
