One year after almost 300 Chibok girls were abducted from their school, #BringBackOurGirlsNYC appreciates Congresswoman Carolyn B. Maloney's support as she stands in solidarity with us, their parents, siblings and communities to call for their rescue by the Nigerian government, other West African and African states, as well as the UN and broader international community. Although saddened and astounded that our girls are yet to be rescued, #BringBackOurGirlsNYC remains hopeful that the world's governments and multilateral institutions will redouble their efforts to rescue and reunite them with their families. We will continue to stand with their families and communities until these hopes are realized. #BringBackOurGirlsNYC appreciate each and everyone that came to the Press Conference. See you tomorrow Tuesday, April 14 at 6pm at UN Church House Chapel (777 UN Plaza) Interfaith Vigil and Schoolgirl March to Nigeria House (2nd Avenue & 44th St., NYC) and the procession to see the Empire State Building lit up for our #ChibokGirls.
Thanks to Evon Idahosa for being steadfast in struggle to #BringBackOurGirls. Congresswoman Carolyn B. Maloney is to be applauded for rallying a diverse group of supporters in the cause of our girls, and in struggle to end violence against women. A part of the video and a few pictures are attached. More to come.
