Just as many Nigerians and people in some part of the world are calling
for the release of the chibok girls who were abducted, Star actress,
Mercy Johnson, has joined her colleagues in calling for the release of
the missing Chibok schoolgirls. Here’s a write-up from her:
“Sometimes,
our realities remind us of the pain of others. My reality as a mother
is that I get to see my daughter every day, while the reality of the
mothers of the kidnapped 234 Chibok girls is that they don’t even know
where their daughters are.
I looked at my daughter and tears came
to my eyes that some mothers have the privileges of seeing their kids
on a daily basis while the mothers of the kidnapped girls can only
console themselves with memories.
All well-meaning Nigerians must
come together and help these mothers who have been in pain for more
than two weeks and make the memory a reality — the reality of seeing
their children again. Let us not for once think that the evil-doers who
turn the realities of these mothers to memories cannot do the same to us
if they have the opportunities.
This is not a war against select
group of people; it is a war against all well-meaning mothers in
Nigeria as injustice to one is injustice to all. Let the mothers rise,
the men who love them should stand by their right hand and the children
who adore them on their left and do all we can in our spheres of
influence to ensure that the children come back home safe so that the
mothers can smile again.
Can you pray? Increase the tempo of your prayers. Can you fast? Add extra days to it. If what you can do is protest, please do; perhaps
you are a soldier and can go to the war front please do not sit still.
You are a politician or a voice that Boko Haram can listen to, please
speak.
We need the girls back!!! They are innocent, they have
their future ahead of them, please do not cut it short. I dare say some
of them will end up being the solution we desire to restore the lost and
battered glory of this nation. Please don’t kill or damage the future
all in the name of militancy.
I appeal to the soldiers and other
security operatives, don’t be demoralised, please fight hard, fight more
and fight on. Do not let this evil people for once think that they can
get away with this. If they ever get away with this, let me assure you
that we won’t all be able to sleep with our eyes closed and that
includes you, your wives and children. If an Emir can be killed in his
palace, who is safe in his or her home? Nobody!
I appeal to the
political class and those in power, do not think that any right-thinking
Nigerian would allow that this matter be swept under the carpet, this
isn't one of the matters we would keep mum about. We will continue
talking, praying, protesting until you make the matter your matter. If
your child were one of the children that was abducted, we would probably
have heard of the end of the matter. Let’s not fold our arms and let
evil reign.
Nigeria shall be great, only if we do the right thing and the right thing at this moment is to bring our girls back and alive.”
