Since April 14th of this
year, 230 School girls are still in captivity after being kidnapped from the
Chibok Government Secondary School by Boko Haram Terrorists in Nigeria. Now
this isnt just an article about "Where they are". It's a question.
Why are they still in captivity? Why are we continuing to live as if this event
isn’t even happening? (If you have no idea what #BringBackOurGirls ‘s is please
click on the link below and then come back to this article.)
230 GIRLS!! That is A LOT! These girls aren’t just being
starved and kept in a room; they are facing situations beyond your imagination.
This is happening because they want to go to school? Is that why? We should be
focused less on what Nick Jonas is wearing (no offense) and more on spreading
the value of education! The purpose of this post isn’t on repeating the
information you’ve been continuously hearing for the last 6 months! I want to
broadcast my voice, my thoughts. Not a day goes that I don’t
think about these 230+ girls that suffer because they decided to go to school.
I know I’m not alone in talking about this – I know that there’s hundreds of
thousands of parents, girls, or just other people on Earth that are worried
about the safety of the girls! Media should stay consistent; all the other
countries should take more keen interest in this and most importantly, the
people. We should do something as big as a rally or something as little as a
tweet. We should make sure that these girls are brought back home.
But keep in mind that this
issue doesn’t end here. Try talking to friends or family about it and educate them.
You hold potential to end this conflict – don’t forget.
Well these are my 2 cents on #BringBackOurGirls #BringBackOurGirlsNow
