#BRINGBACKOURGIRLS# CAMPAIGN MARKS 3YEARS OF ABDUCTION




Almost three years after the abduction of over 200 girls from Government Secondary School in Chibok town, Borno State, the Bring Back Our Girls (BBOG) campaign group, has gathered together in a protest at the nation’s capital.
Kicking off a week-long slate of activities designed to
raise fresh awareness on the need for the girls to
return, the BBOG convener, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili, said the Federal Government must do everything required to make 2017 the last year of the girls’ captivity.
The BBOG convener further noted that previous
timelines given by government for the release of the
girls must be respected and met, moving forward.
On January 8 , 2017, it became 1,000 days since
the girls were abducted by Boko Haram militants.
Although some of them have since been released and
others managed to escape, as at January, at least 195
girls were still said to be in captivity.


276 SCHOOLGIRLS WERE ABDUCTED ON APRIL 14,2014.
57 ESCAPED, 4 FOUND, 21 RELEASED,
4 INFANTS WITH OUR GIRLS, 19 PARENTS DEAD, 195 STILL MISSING!
