Pope Francis 1, leader of the Catholic Church worldwide, yarn say the 21 Chibok girls wey dey released from Sambisa forest need psychological evaluation conducted by experts.
Pope Francis relate dis statement through him representative, President of Pontifical Mission Societies
(Nigeria), Rev. Fr. George Ajana, for dis year World Mission Sunday, for Our Lady Queen of Nigeria Pro-Cathedral, Area 3, Abuja,
He say;
“The release of the 21 Chibok girls is victory, it is a very
good sign and we are thanking God for it that some of the
Chibok girls were released. Nigerians have been celebrating
all this while, the church joins them in the celebration and
we are one with them.
So, we first of all thank God that a few of them, just 21 were
released. The Chibok girls need medical assistance; the
government is doing that already. They have been taken to
hospital. I think they will need psychological rehabilitation.
The government need to bring in experts to stabilise them
because they must have gone through a lot of trauma.
“I don’t think they will be their normal selves any longer. So,
the Chibok girls need to be psychologically brought back to
their real life. And we need to pray for them; the church will
be very happy to do that. We keep praying for the release of
the rest because they are human beings to be respected.
The life of one person is as important as the lives of the
whole nation, which must be respected.”
