Abducted Chibok girls risk organ failure –Experts


A Child/Adolescent Psychiatrist, Dr. Mashidat Mojeed-Bello, has raised the alarm that the recollections of the over 200 schoolgirls abducted on April 14, 2014 by members of the dreaded Boko Haram in Chibok, Borno State, may have been affected due to their perpetuated exposure to astringent environment.

She verbally expressed the incident might have negatively affected the girls’ major organs.

“Because of their exposure to ravish and their rights trampled upon, their major organs may be negatively affected,” she verbalized.

She told Saturday PUNCH in an interview during the week that the girls might have been experiencing bodily reaction in different ways as a result of their rights that were being forcefully trampled upon.

Bello verbally expressed, “Emotionally, the abduction will engender anger in the girls; they will be irate with themselves and others. They will be experiencing earnest dejection.

“They may become hopeless and distrust of people around them; the girls will feel empty and perpetually feel threatened.

“If the girls are relinquished or rescued, they may want to detest schooling because aggression may have set in. The astringent condition to which they have been subjected may withal transmute their personalities.”

Bello, however, urged the regime to involve pertinent professional communities in the rehabilitation of the girls after their relinquishment.

To a Gynaecologist, Dr. Olanrewaju Ekunji, the abducted schoolgirls would develop phobia for sex, integrating that they were prone to the peril of sexually-trasmitted diseases, which might affect their reproductive organs.
