The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) said on Sunday that it could not dissociate Senator Kashim Shettima from the abduction of teenagers from the Government Girls Secondary School in Chibok, Borno State by the Islamic terrorist group Boko Haram, eight years ago.

Recall that Shettima was the incumbent governor when the terrorists attacked Chibok at night in April 2014 and whisked away 276 students, mostly Christian female students.
