Presidency Says Parents Of Chibok Girls Canceled The Meeting Not GEJ.

In a swift reaction to earlier reports that President
Jonathan cancelled his meeting with the parents of
the missing Chibok girls, the Senior Special
Assistant to the President on Publicity, Dr Doyin
Okupe spoke on the contrary, the parents of the
missing Chibok girls were the ones who cancelled
on the President on the advice of the
#Bringbackourgirls Campaign Leadership.
Speaking with newsmen in Abuja this evening, Dr
Okupe said the President, the Vice President and
other principal staff were actually waiting for the
4pm scheduled meeting with the parents but they
never showed up. He said that the leaders of the
#bringbackourgirls campaign, who brought the
parents to Abuja by paying for their transportation
and accommodation, advised them from honoring
the President's meeting for selfish reasons. He
said with this action today, the campaigners have
shown that they know genuine interest in the missing
Chibok girls.
