Yes! Its 32days after the abduction of over 200 Nigerian school girls and the news/updates seem to be on the decline.
Sadly! Would it go the way of the #missingN20B? will it go the way of National Conference which is still on by the way but not as reported as when it started? I say No. Not because Nigeria or the Nigerian press has changed but because everyone the world over is eager to know where this sad tale will end. There were so many theories as i have reported here and all these have warped our thought process. A reminder and the questions:
We are set to Improve the Nigerian Child's reading culture, Increase her vocabulary, Alternative knowledge acquisition through fun, writing as a way to engage, Confidence building and improve public Speaking.

Mike Omeri, the Coordinator, National Information Centre, said this at a joint news conference by the Department of State Service, the Military and the Nigerian Police Force in Abuja.

But one reason for the singer's passive response has now emerged, with claims that Solange flew into a rage after the rapper had 'got too close' to designer Rachel Roy at the Met Gala.
Solange was annoyed that Californian fashion designer Rachel was 'hovering around' Jay Z at the star-studded New York event.

Friends no more? Solange Knowles (L) apparently lashed out at Jay Z as he was 'too close' to designer Rachel Roy (R)
An insider told the New York Daily News: 'Rachel is a little too close to Jay Z. Solange doesn’t like it, and BeyoncĂ© doesn’t like it.'
And Knowles the younger was apparently so incandescent about the whole affair she ended up getting into the violent confrontation with her brother-in-law.

FOREIGN ALLIES HAVE NOT CARRIED OUT ARREST OR OPERATION
Michelle Obama's speech on the abducted Chibok girls.
"Like millions of people across the globe, my husband and I are outraged and heartbroken over the kidnapping of more than 200 Nigerian girls from their school dormitory in the middle of the night," she said.
"This unconscionable act was committed by a terrorist group determined to keep these girls from getting an education – grown men attempting to snuff out the aspirations of young girls."
She continued: "In these girls, Barack and I see our own daughters. We see their hopes, their dreams – and we can only imagine the anguish their parents are feeling right now.
"Many of them may have been hesitant to send their daughters off to school, fearing that harm might come their way.
"But they took that risk because they believed in their daughters’ promise and wanted to give them every opportunity to succeed."
Mrs Obama added that students in America should look at the Nigeria situation, and realise that they could not take their own educational opportunities for granted.
"These girls embody the best hope for the future of our world…and we are committed to standing up for them not just in times of tragedy or crisis, but for the long haul."
Mrs Obama has accompanied her husband for the presidential address before, but it is the first time that she has given the speech alone.
And although it is an unusual move, it is not unprecedented – Laura Bush, wife of George W. Bush, was the first to do so in 2001, and took the opportunity to denounce the treatment of women in Afghanistan.
Following the kidnapping of 276 girls on April 14, a campaign to secure their return has mushroomed. Activists are urging the Nigerian government to do more, and claim that President Goodluck Jonathan has been slow to respond and uninterested in their fate.
Mrs Obama last week posted a photo of herself holding up a sign reading "#Bring Back Our Girls" to show her support for the campaign.
On Friday night the United Nations Security Council unanimously declared that the mass kidnappings "may amount to crimes against humanity" under international law. But they made no explicit reference to charges in the International Criminal Court.
The 15 members of the council said they would follow the situation and consider "appropriate measures" to take against Boko Haram.
The statement urged their immediate release, without conditions.
Meanwhile, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon announced he was sending his special representative for West Africa, Said Djinnit, to Abuja to discuss ways of helping authorities locate the girls.
