Former President Olusegun Obasanjo on Sunday said that Chibok girls may never return home.
According to THE NATION, Obasanjo made the comment during a BBC Hausa program on Sunday. He said many of the girls may also give birth to children belong to members of the Boko Haram insurgents.
"I believe that some of them will never return. We will still be hearing about them many years from now, some will give birth to children of the Boko Haram members, but if they cannot take care of them in the forest,they may release them", Obasanjo.
If they ever do make it home it will not be because of the global news media. The one girl made it home 10 days ago and could tell the world what kind of treatment she and the other girls were enduring. It's a potential block-buster of a story, but no-one in the media seems the least bit interested in asking her. I'm assuming she's a real person, not like the 60 who were rescued in July.
Maybe if her skin wasn't so dark...
(Pardon me for starting to get cynical).
