Event Summary

The Murtala Muhammed Foundation (MMF) marked the 12th anniversary of the abduction of 276 schoolgirls from Nigeria — Chibok by Boko Haram, expressing fresh concerns over waning accountability and global attention. While 187 girls have escaped or been rescued, 89 remain unaccounted for, with no confirmed recoveries in the past year. The CEO of Murtala Muhammed Foundation (MMF), Aisha Muhammed-Oyebode, stated that the Nigeria — Chibok tragedy has become a metaphor for neglect and systemic failure, with over 40 children born in captivity returning with their mothers. The Murtala Muhammed Foundation (MMF) called on the government of Nigeria to intensify efforts to locate the remaining girls and urged the United Nations and the international community to re-engage in protecting children in conflict-affected areas.
