Saraki hails return of one of the kidnapped Chibok Girls

I join all Nigerians and our well-wishers in the international community in celebrating the safe return of Amina Ali Nkek, one of the kidnapped Chibok Girls.

Amina’s return should strengthen our collective belief that our missing daughters and sisters from Chibok that are still held hostage will eventually be returned.

As we join the Nkek family to celebrate Amina today, we must also remember and continue to pray for the remaining families that are still yet to see, hear from, or locate their daughters.

The 8th Senate is determined to provide appropriate legislation to protect lives and properties of every Nigerian.

God bless you all.

And as I assured Nigerians during Social Media Week Lagos in February this year, following the recommendation for withdrawal from the Committee on Human Rights and Legal Matters, we stood down the ‪Social Media Bill‬ at the 8th Senate.

This withdrawal was prompted by the fact that any piece of legislation with real or perceived violations on the fundamental rights of Nigerians must be set aside for the greater good of our nation.

I thank my Distinguished Colleagues for their contributions and decision on this matter.

As a legislature, we will continue to be responsive to the demands of the Nigerian people whom we serve.

Abubakar Bukola Saraki
