We regret our votes to President Buhari in 2015 - Chibok community

The people of Chibok community resident in Abuja and members of the #BringBackOurGirls (BBOG), movement on Monday during a protest near the Presidential villa confirmed to Nigerian's that they regret voting President Buhari into power during the 2015 general election.

Speaking during the protest on Monday,after they were being blocked by policemen from gaining entrance into the Presidential villa, the chairman of the Chibok Community, Hosea Tsambido said members of the Community and BBOG voted massively for Mr. Buhari as against his predecessor, Goodluck Jonathan, who they voted for in 2011.
“They tell us that our girls seen in the latest video was merely an arrangement,” Mr. Tsambido said. “No one has spoken to the family of any of the Chibok girls since the last video was released, by the terrorists. We regret our votes. We regret it.”
“We were promised that the president would visit Sambisa, after becoming president. We were also told that within two weeks our girls would be rescued.

“But over one year now, there is no tangible statement about our girls. The presidency has stated instead that it is confused.”

The group said the current administration has ran out of excuses regarding the return of the Chibok girls.
“No more excuses,” they chanted several times.
