Former Nigerian Finance Minister, Dr NGOZI OKONJO-IWEALA, has urged the Federal Government to do everything possible to bring back the over 300 schoolboys abducted from Government Science Secondary School, Kankara, Katsina State.

According to her, those using the children as pawns must be held accountable.

OKONJO-IWEALA, who is the leading candidate for the job of director-general of the World Trade Organisation, made this known on her Twitter handle.

She said the abduction of more than 300 schoolboys in Katsina is heartbreaking.

According to her "What a recurring nightmare. My heart goes out to the families of the missing boys. The authorities must do all possible to #BringBackOurBoys! Those using our children as pawns must be held accountable!".
