Read IGP's warning to "Bring Back Our Girls"

Perhaps tired of the 'antics' of the Bring Back Our Girls advocacy group, Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris has issued a stern "enough is enough" warning to the conveners of the movement.

Speaking while receiving the National President of the National Council of Women Societies, NCWS, Gloria Shoda and other members of the Council executive in his office in Abuja, the police chief said that the activities of the group threatened public peace and order.

“The police management is aware of the agitation and the plight of parents of the abducted Chibok schoolgirls and other civil groups. As parents ourselves, we sympathize with them in these trying moments.

“Evidently, the government has invested huge resources in ensuring that the girls are rescued and re-united with their various families.

“However, the activities of the BringBackOurGirls group in Abuja, the nation’s capital recently, are becoming worrisome and threat to public peace and order.

“#BringBackOurGirls protagonists must understand that in the exercise of their rights, they must not trample on other peoples’ rights through over-dramatization of emotions, self-serving propaganda and disrespect of public (office) holders.

“The police will not sit on the fence and watch such a scenario unfold. The rights of law-abiding citizens must be protected within the context of the law and we believe that enough is enough,” he said.
