Recently, banners that agitate people to vote for Goodluck Jonathan at the upcoming presidential election have been seen in the streets of Abuja.
However, the slogan on these banners has caused controversy as #BringBackOurGoodluck2015 looks just like variation of #BringBackOurGirls campaign.
#BringBackOurGirls campaign was created to reunite over 250 abducted by Boko Haram Chibok girls with their parents.
A lot of media resources expressed their irritation to this insensitive move. It has been almost 5 months since Chibok girls were kidnapped, and it seems that the government has forgotten about their rescue.

It’s not for the first time when Nigerian politicians distort #BringBackOurGirls slogan. For example, the former Governor of Oyo State, Alao Akala made #BringBackOurMan as his new campaign slogan.
Do you think this campaign intended to mock the movement in support of Chibok girls advocacy?
