It was tears and a sombre mood today when President Buhari, First Lady Aisha Buhari and VP Yemi Osinbajo's wife Mrs Dolapo Osinbajo met with some of the mothers of the
abducted Chibok Girls today.

Over 200 schoolgirls were reportedly abducted in Chibok last April from their school compound.

The abduction has generated a worldwide condemnation with a pressure group BringBakcOutGirls being at the forefront of calling on government to rescue the girls.
The tearful encounter happened inside the Defence House, Abuja where Buhari currently operates from.

The two mothers were led to Defence House by Mrs.Yemi Osinbajo to first meet with Hajia Buhari.

The President’s wife later led them into another round of meeting with Buhari.

On emerging from the closed-doors meeting to pose for photographs, the two women again broke down in tears while Hajia Aisha Buhari held them tightly.

Mrs. Osinbajo also joined in the weeping.

The Vice President’s wife, with misty eyes, later told State House correspondents what transpired during the two separate meetings.

She said, “Hajia Aisha Buhari had for many months wanted to visit Chibok. She also wanted to meet with the mothers.

“Today, we had an opportunity for them to meet face-to-face. We had two of the mothers who still have their daughters missing after a year.

“Hajia being a mother met with them, held them and they cried, everybody cried. What only a mother will do is to say ‘wait, I want you to see your father and see what your father will do.’

” We were all extremely overwhelmed that at this time when the President is so busy, he had time to meet with the women from Chibok.

“He spoke to them in English and Hausa. He explained to them how he keeps telling everybody to put themselves in their place.

“So, today we have had the opportunity for the President and Hajia to show that they are our father and mother, for that we are glad.”

Shortly after the photo session, security men quickly whisked the weeping mothers away.
