An open letter to The Nigerian’s government
The news of the more than 200 girl’s abduction from a
Nigerian school last month by the Islamists extremists’ armed group Boko Haram
has simply shocked the world. A month
has passed since the girls were kidnapped, and your behaviour as well as Patience
Jonathan´s, the first lady, by wasting time downplaying the crisis and lying
about these girls' fates had added to the consternation. This happened when you,
along with your government should be reaching out for help.
Your government had subjected the families’ of the
abducted girls who call on Nigerian’s government to help secure the safe
release of the girls, to threat and harassment. The international community has
accused you and your government of not acting swiftly or efficiently enough to
protect the kidnapped girls.
There is documented evidence that the military
authorities in the state Borno were aware of the terrorist attack, but the
military did not show any preventive measures in order to pursue the
terrorists’ organization Boko Haram.
You should know that the world stands with the girls’
families in demanding their immediate release.
We undersigned, Children First Now, the International
Campaign for Children’s rights call on the Nigerian government and demand
authorities do everything in their power to secure the girls' release
immediately. This is your and Nigerian’s government task and responsibility.
