The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has expressed shock over reports on students of Government Girls Science Technical College, Dapchi, Yobe State, declared missing following Monday attack by Boko Haram terrorists.
It therefore called on the police to do all it could to ensure that the girls returned home safely.
The call was made in a statement issued by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Kola Ologbondiyan.
The statement reads in part: “Indeed, we are very disturbed by this ugly development especially given the conflicting reports on the whereabouts of these innocent girls.

“Our party restates that the life, safety and wellbeing of all Nigerians remain of paramount importance to us and we therefore insist that all efforts must be exerted to find these students.
“The PDP is monitoring development on the position of the Nigeria Police investigation of the matter.
“We however charge the Inspector General of Police to immediately put all machinery in place to unravel this disturbing situation and recover the missing children.
“We also urge the All Progressives Congress (APC)-controlled Federal Government to live up to its basic responsibility of protecting lives and property in our country.”
