ALARMED!

Abuja mothers demanding the rescue and release of abducted schoolgirls

What does the life of a Nigerian worth? April 14 over 100 Nigerians were killed during the Nyanya attack. The night of that same day over 200 schoolgirls from Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, in Borno State were kidnapped by insurgents.
Our dear President Goodluck Jonathan, Senate President David Mark and the administration's service chiefs made a brief appearance at the scene of the Nyanya bomb blast and also visited the injured victims at the hospital.
The president is yet to visit Borno and meet with parents of the abducted schoolgirls and assure them of the safe rescue and return of their daughters. Emotions were heavy the penultimate week when Borno State Governor Ibrahim Shettima and Senator Ndume visited the school and met the parents of the abducted schoolgirls.
But the very next day of these sad incidents, the president and his party the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) went to Kano for a rally, where there were seen dancing. The president also used the event to accuse the Kano State Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of embezzling his campaign funds and diverting local government allocations.
Already the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) has keyed into this fundamental political blunder to show how insensitive the Jonathan administration has become towards the plight of bruised and bleeding Nigerians.
Just on Monday the PDP cancelled its Imo rally after much pressure from the APC and some civil society groups, especially because the abducted schoolgirls were not yet rescued from their abductors and returned to their parents.
On Sunday, April 27, 2014, the younger brother of Vice President Namadi Sambo, Capt Sambo, unfortunately lost his life in a ghostly motor accident in Abuja. President Jonathan and other Nigerians from all works of life have been mourning with the second family.
This Wednesday, the executive arm of the government by the order of the president is suspending its weekly Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting in honour of Capt Sambo. This is why I am ALARMED!
I am so ALARMED and taken ABACK. Because of one Capt. Sambo, the whole executive's key activities for the key is suspended? This is a misguided decision and Nigerians are continually pained by the repeated broad day light of show of 'I don't care' posture of President Jonathan, his ministers and aides.
When the bomb blast incident took place on 14 of this passing month and over hundred were killed, there was no day or days of mourning that was declared, instead there was a reckless dancing at Kano.
And it is exactly 17 days today that our innocent girls were abducted, except for the ones who safely escaped, no news has been received about their whereabout, efforts towards their rescue. No emergency action, FEC did not suspend its meeting either. I am ALARMED!
