Number one man in the whole world president, Mr. Barrack Obama, has condemned last week’s seizure of Chibok town by members of the Boko Haram Sect. Chibok is the town where the terrorists abducted more than 270 female students in April, 2014.
Reacting to the seizure through a Spokesperson of the White House, Ms. Jen Psaki, the United States leader lamented, saying that it had shown how difficult the situation in the Northern parts of Nigeria was.
Asked to confirm if he believed that the Nigerian army was not really managing to take control of the situation in the northeast, Obama declined comments but, said that the American military advisors that were sent out in the back end of April were still on the ground to assist in finding the girls.
I believe there is still a presence there. I don’t have the exact specifics on the numbers on that front, he added.
His words: “We are aware of the report. And while we are closely monitoring it, we don’t have confirmation of all the specifics that have been out there. We condemn these attacks in Chibok, a community that has already suffered too much.
condolences go out to the families of the victims. We remain committed to helping the Government of Nigeria address the threat posed by extremist organizations and to assist – assisting Nigeria and its neighbors – Cameroon and Chad – to address critical security needs.
He pressed further that his administration had provided a range of assistance to the government of Nigeria over the course that he outlined above , stressing that he would continue to work very closely with Nigeria and her neighbors on addressing this
