Indeed, it is a commendable feat for the present government, which has promised to ensure the rescue of the kidnapped girls. The humanitarian crisis in the IDP camps in northern Nigeria is yet to receive adequate and deserved response both locally and internationally. Corruption in the management of the IDP camps has also retarded progress. In the light of worsening situation in these IDP camps, the Nigerian Senate acknowledged the mismanagement and promised to look into it. The rescue of 21 school girls is not enough for the government to continue to celebrate victory over Boko Haram.
