Mr Mike Omeri, the Director General of the National Orientation Agency (NOA), has said that the activities of #BringBackOurGirls protesters has become a distraction to the government.
He made this statement during a press conference in Abuja yesterday. He appealed to Nigerians to support government’s effort to end terrorism in the country, and rescue the girls, rather than distract it. This is what he said:
“It is necessary to caution those involved in daily protests that there is a clear difference between credible civil agitation and subversive preoccupations. While democracy encourages peaceful and meaningful protests, such protesters especially as it relates to the Chibok incident should focus on the broader and all-encompassing concerns on lives being lost daily since terrorist actions broke out in the Northeast. Nigerians must consider it more patriotic to support government than to place it under pressure”
*Hmm...so he is saying we should be more concerned with terrorism in the Northeast than innocent children who were kidnapped from their school (in our own country) for six months and counting! #Epic.
