New Date Set Chibok Abducted Parent To Meet With Jonathan

The Parent of the kidnapped girls said “We take full responsibility for our decision and welcome the formal invitation by the Presidency as a follow up to Malala’s visit, which we received this morning. 
”The meeting was arranged after education activist and a victim of terrorist attack, Malala Yousofazai, met with President Jonathan on Monday and pleaded with the President to meet with the parents of the abducted girls to encourage them.

Jonathan, in a statement delivered by his Senior Special Assistant on Public Affairs, Dr. Doyin Okupe, accused the Bring-Back-Our-Girls activists of politicising the planned meeting by taking the parents out of Abuja before the meeting could hold.

According to the President’s statement, every arrangement had been made for the planned meeting with the President, including sending a bus from the Presidential Villa, to bring the parents of the girls before the meeting was botched.  Meanwhile, the Presidency has extended another invitation to them set for July 22 at the Aso Villa, which they accepted to honour.
