CNN correspondent, Isha Sesay has taken a swipe at president Buhari calls kidnap of taken 105 girls in Dapchi is a national disaster.
The cable TV anchor said the kidnap is not a national disaster but a national disgrace.
Sesay made this known in some of her tweets on Saturday, February 24, 2018 while lending her voice to the release of the girls kidnapped in Dapchi area of Yobe state on Monday, February 19, 2018.
"Nigeria's President Buhari calls abduction of DapchiGirls "a national disaster." That's an understatement - it's a national disgrace. More girls taken - again?? Yobe ChibokGirls," Sesay had tweeted.
Sesay further tweeted: "I want to live in a world where the lives of the DapchiGirls are held to be just as important as those of kids in other places. A world where everyone is talking about schoolgirls being stolen by terrorists. Is that too much to as."
And when a follower tried convincing her, she insisted that the word disgrace captures blame and responsibility by the Nigerian government.
"Nope! "National disaster" doesn't cut it. I'm taking "national disgrace" which implies blame and responsibility," she tweeted.
On Monday, February 19, 2018, the men of the Boko Haram sect invaded a part of Yobe State including the Government Girls Secondary School in Dapchi kidnapping several students and reigning terror on the school and the village.
According to a forum of parents of missing students, the number of girls in captivity have been given as 105.
