Speaking with journalists today at the daily sit out of the Abuja
#bringbackourgirls campaign, a leader of the Kibaku Area Development
Association of the Chibok community, Dauda Iliya said contrary to media
reports, they didn't receive N100m from the presidency. He said only
N200,000 was handed to some of the parents.
"On July 22nd at about midnight,
the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Special duties who has
been coordinating the visit from the side of the presidency visited the
hotel and told the 51 escaped girls who came that the Presidency sent
them a token of a N100, 000 each and accordingly gave them the said
money without even a prior knowledge or discussion of any other person
in the community that was around the vicinity of the hotel.
The Senior
special assistant equally gave the sum of N200,000 each to 61 parents
out of the 122 that came on the visit. 61 parents were given N100,000
each on the basis that the money given to them was not enough to go
round at the agreed amount of N200,000 each. The remaining parents were
not given any money at all" he said
