Ezekwesili made the comment following Boko Haram’s release of a video showing some of the girls alive.

“We are not going to let up until this government acts. Let them get ready because every day we shall be marching to the (Presidential) villa. These girls were kidnapped in the course of getting education, which annoyed me to no end,” she said according to Punch.

“It is on this basis of education that I became what I am today. If it means marching to the villa every day to demand the release of our chibok girls, so be it….Only three choices are available – negotiate to release our girls, use the military operation or a combination of the two. We don’t want to see a fourth video,” she added.

The sect released the video, which showed 50 of the girls, on Sunday, August 14, 2016.

The video also shows one terrorist who accused the Nigerian Army of killing some of the girls during an airstrike.
