These are surely not the best of times for President Goodluck Jonathan
following the kidnap of over 200 school girls from Government Secondary
School Chibok, Borno state five weeks ago.
President Goodluck Jonathan was greeted with shouts of “bring back our girls” when he arrived at the Union Buildings, where President Jacob Zuma was inaugurated for a second term in office as president.
Nigeria‘s President Goodluck Jonathan was among more than 20 heads of state gathered for the
event.
African leaders in Pretoria for President Jacob Zuma’s inauguration will
hold informal talks on the security situation in Nigeria, South
Africa’s government said on Saturday.
Government spokesman Clayson Monyela said they would meet to discuss security in Nigeria, where the kidnapping of 276 schoolgirls has laid bare the government’s inability to tackle an insurgency by the Islamist group Boko Haram.
The talks follow a spate of attacks in Nigeria, which is under growing international pressure to tackle the increasingly bloody uprising.
