The chairperson of the strategy team of the Bring Back Our Girls, BBOG, movement, Aisha Yesufu, has expressed displeasure over the president’s habit of making statements over important issues in the country, while outside the country, in a series of tweets in which she addressed Garba Shehu, spokesperson for President Buhari.
Parents were in front of villa and @MBuhari asked police to block them. Tell PMB the world is a global village https://t.co/E1J6dQR2BK

The activist also told the special adviser that he had failed the president:
You have failed the President in his trust in employing you. You should have advised him to talk to Nigerians since https://t.co/1BcX9tE4bE

President Buhari, while in Kenya for the sixth Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD VI), over the weekend, had said that the government were currently implementing plans to re-integrate Internally Displaced Peoples, said to be over two million persons.
Also, while conducting interviews on the sidelines of the events, the president assured Nigerians of his willingness to release detained Boko Haram leaders if the insurgent group would assure that the abducted Chibok girls will be released.
Meanwhile, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili, the co-convener of the #BringBackOurGirls group has said the group have pledged to remain in the fight for the return of the Chibok Girls.
Ezekwesili, who spoke during the Thursday sit-out of the group, declared that the group had made a vow to the Chibok community to stand for their daughters until they are rescued.
“We gave our word to the Chibok leader that knelt in the rain and begged us not to give up on their daughters until they are back. A pledge is a pledge and every pledge is meant to be actualized,” the former World Bank vice president said.
