The #BringBackOurGirls movement has urged the Federal Government to release the findings of the 2014 Brigadier General Mohammed Sabo-led Fact-Finding Committee on the abduction of the Chibok schoolgirls.

In a statement issued on Sunday and signed by its spokesperson, Jeff Okoroafor, the group criticised past and present administrations for withholding the report, despite filing Freedom of Information requests.

The statement partly read: *”The #BringBackOurGirls movement wishes to remind the President Bola Tinubu administration of its constitutional duty to protect all citizens.

“To this effect, the administration has a duty to provide an account of the status of the rescue of the remaining Chibok girls to their families and the Nigerian people. We reiterate the importance of bringing closure for the families of the remaining 78 missing schoolchildren.

“Critically, the Tinubu administration, like its predecessors, has failed to release the Sabo Fact-Finding Committee Report, despite our movement’s request, including through an FoI process.”

The group recalled that on the night of April 14, 2014, 276 schoolgirls were abducted by terrorists from Government Secondary School, Chibok, in Borno State.

Following global outrage and mounting pressure, then-President Goodluck Jonathan set up the Sabo Committee on May 6, 2014, to investigate the incident.

The committee’s report, submitted on June 20, 2014, confirmed the abduction, noting that while 57 girls escaped, 219 remained missing at the time.
