 I’ll die with scar of Chibok Girls tragedy — Jonathan


Former Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan says the abduction of the Chibok girls remains an indelible scar on his legacy. He spoke on Friday at the public presentation of ‘SCARS: Nigeria’s Journey and the Boko Haram Conundrum’, a memoir by former Nigeria Chief of Defence Staff, General Lucky Irabor.


Jonathan praised Irabor’s service, noting that the retired officer was “a soldier who stood for truth and never played politics with security.” Reflecting on his presidency, Jonathan admitted that the 2014 abduction of 276 schoolgirls in Chibok, Borno State, would haunt him forever. “The title of this book is quite interesting. One of the major scars on my government is the Chibok Girls.


“As Bishop Kukah said, no plastic or cosmetic surgeon can remove it. It is a scar I will die with,” he said. The incident sparked the #BringBackOurGirls campaign and global outrage. Although some girls escaped or were freed, over 80 remain unaccounted for.


‘Boko Haram More Complex’


Jonathan recalled that Boko Haram began in 2009 when he was Vice President under Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, and intensified under his rule. “I battled Boko Haram for five years as President,” he explained, noting that, “I thought Buhari would wipe them out quickly, but they remain.”


He stressed that the insurgency is “far more complex than many assume” and urged Nigeria to rethink its strategy.
