The PDP National Chairman, Prince Uche Secondus, who led the protesters in Abuja, demanded the safe return of the students.
Secondus demanded that the federal government should initiate genuine strategies aimed at rescuing the boys alive and stop issuing mere press statements.
“This is a peaceful protest to make the entire country and international community to be aware of what is going on in our country,” Secondus said.
But reacting, President Muhammadu Buhari/Osinbajo Dynamic Support Group, said that the abduction of the students and on-going protests were calculated to blackmail Buhari.
Addressing newsmen at the APC National Secretariat on Thursday in Abuja, the National Coordinator of the group, Hon. Usman lbrahim, said Nigerians should cooperate with the Buhari administration to enable it succeed.
