#bringbackourgirls: A Frustrated Reader In Nigeria Cries Out

                                             

Is God still in Nigeria??? Why us?? Why now??? This is 2014, one would expect things to get better not worst! Just imagine how it would feel to send your daughter off to school, and to Learn that she's not only been abducted but possibly sold off into marriage, just imagine the agony these mothers are going through. #bringbackourgirls

At this point I have started to cry. Tears of  impotence, of frustration, of undiluted anger. I AM TIRED OF MY COUNTRY! I AM TIRED OF MY PRESIDENT!!!

I have a 6 year old daughter. She could easily have been one of the girls in that school. I am lucky that she is not. But I can imagine the fear, the mental torment, the anguish that the mothers of those girls are going through.

Our president, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, put of the FEC yesterday to mourn the death of the VP’s brother (may his soul rest in peace). Jonathan, what have you put off to find our girls?

Reports suggest that they girls are now being sold off into marriage for as little as N2000. Jonathan you just married off your daughter 2 weekends ago right? Did you sell her for $12.45? Why are you not speaking to us about our missing girls?

These are our children! They belong to us all, not to some random mothers in Chibok. What about all those who have been killed? I keep being told I do not understand the politics behind Boko Haram and this is true. But I understand death, I understand loss and I understand that my country is being laid to waste by terrorists. And while all this is going on, my President, whom we voted in with confidence that he would lead our nation forward, is dancing in churches and giving out gold plated iphones at his daughter’s wedding.

Who gave out souvenirs at the weddings the students at Chibok were sold into? Do you think they danced to Emma Nyra and Davido at their wedding?

I’m reaching out to the blogs, the news stations the radio shows. Carry this story please! Social media spoke and Donald Sterling is banned for life. Everybody with a magnifying flass is trying to find that Missing Malaysia air flight.

Can you help us BRING OUR GIRLS BACK?!!!!

Help these girls. Help me, because beyond writing this I am at a loss for what to do. I cannot help my country alone and to be honest my country doesn’t seem to be able to help itself. Will you help us?
