Okonjo Iweala decries students abduction, says it may increase dropouts
“It makes my heart weak and bleed when such abductions happens, especially to the girls and the first instincts of the parents is to say they won’t send their children to school because nobody wants their child abducted, whether it is a boy or girl,” Okonjo-Iweala said while she visited the minister of women’s affairs, Pauline Tallen.
“If you check, you will see many of the children will no longer return to school and may then enter into early marriages, so whoever these kidnappers are, hold your peace, please leave our children alone,”
“It is shameful that we have this kind of thing happening,” she added.
