Before the march, the co-convener of the group Aisha Yesufu, addressed newsmen at the Unity Fountain, Abuja. She said: “It’s unbelievable that two years on, we are still talking about Chibok girls in captivity. We are not talking about Chibok girls’ rehabilitation and how far they have come after their captivity. It’s so sad.
“It’s a sad, heartbreaking and painful day, especially talking about the video that has been released by CNN and seeing a parent crying so wretchedly, so painfully.
“Today, apart from being a painful day, is a day we renew our hope.
“As far as the girls are in captivity, Nigeria is in captive, ” Yesufu said.
