#BringOurGirlsBack

 

I really cannot help but use this platform to lend my voice to the fight against terrorism, against the injustice rife in Nigeria, to show my support to every effort for the 200+ abducted school girls of Federal Government College, Chibok Nigeria, to presurize the Nigerian government to get off their thier political soap boxes and #bringourgirlsback.



I have Twitted and Facebooked, and now I want to blog.

If you don't quite know what is happening, and are wondering what the #bringourgirlsback thing is all about, see what TIME has to say here http://time.com/#90693/bringbackourgirls-nigeria-boko-haram/
For CNNs take see this http://edition.cnn.com/2014/05/08/world/africa/nigeria-missing-girls-rescue-effort/

As a Nigerian Woman I say 'enough is enough'...unfortunately we voted in a weak government and are paying for it. Nevertheless, something has to be done NOW, before our civil liberties are totally taken away... before I have to drop it not by choice but for lack of food to eat in Africa's most populous black nation. But this is NOT a Nigerian or African problem, remember that evil is contagious and evil grows when good people (like you) keep silent!

Thinking of how best to show my support, I got a few friends at work and we took this... As you can see, none of us is smiling!!! Our desire is that where our words cannot reach, may our images go and be imprinted in minds and hearts. May prayers rise to God for the safety of the Chibok girls, their families and other abductees in the region. May the Tsunami of global outrage cause action that will fish out those funding these terrorists and disstabilizing the country Nigeria and the region.

As you can see our faces are covered, and this is because we identify with the nameless masses that have been abducted, killed, raped, displaced and wounded by terrorism in Nigeria!

Nigerian leaders, please move to #bringbackourgirls ASAP.

This is serious.

We'll get back to theme next week!
