Presidency faults Isha Sesay’s book on Chibok

A statement by the Senior Special Assistant on Media and publicity, Garba Shehu, as a good book but with some representations.

“This book should serve the useful purpose of spotlighting the crimes against humanity by Boko Haram terrorists, etching it permanently on the public mind.“In addition, the book should rightfully stir up interest and rally international support for the young girls on the continent who must stay in school and avoid early pregnancy and marriage, in order to actualize their God-given potential.

“In stitching together her compelling portrait of this unfortunate yet paradoxical incident, Isha, this terrific journalist risks a negative judgment of history on a book that is a farrago of misrepresentation.” He said “When government spoke on the issue, it was clear that this split had the effect of making negotiation and reaching an agreement a more difficult talk.

He said that it was incorrect to say Government had given up on the Chibok girls adding, “when the truth is that there is nothing on the ground to give that impression.’ “Yes it is true that “the only reason“ the sitting government at that time “acknowledged fully what had happened” was due the public outcry but it is again unfair to lump criticism on the Nigerian Government without differentiating which of the two administrations that served Nigeria from 2014 to date.
