The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr. Abubakar Malami, SAN, Tuesday, however made a promise that President Muhammadu Buhari's administration would do all within its power to make sure that the over 200 missing Chibok ‎girls safely return.

He noted that President Muhammadu Buhari 's government "has demonstrated sufficient skill and commitment to the protection of lives and property within the shortest practicable time of coming into existence, it has recorded tremendous success including confronting Sambisa forest head-on with the hope rescuing the Chibok girls.”
