#BringBackOurGirls

Over a month has already gone by and noone knows what has happened to almost 300 schoolgirls kidnapped in Nigeria by terrorist organisation Boko Haram.
Can you imagine this??? Being at school and being abducted because you are a girl and you are learning? How sad for them and how lucky you are - have you ever thought about it? Education is a Human Right!
I'm sure you have already heard this piece of news once it has been on TV for so long because, after all this time, the girls still haven't been returned to their desperate families. There is an international campaign going on for the girls' release and you can also get involved using Twitter and the Hashtag #BringBackOurGirls.
Let's join the movement and demand the girls' release. Become caring citizens and get involved, commit yourselves for the sake of those Nigerian girls. The clock is ticking: the more time goes on, the riskier it is for the young helpless girls.
Have a look now at this video shared by UNICEF yesterday.



And now, our class as committed as ever!

    1. Definitely, Ayoud!

      According to UNICEF "Education is a basic human right. Like all human rights, it is universal and inalienable—everyone, regardless of gender, religion, ethnicity or economic status, is entitled to it." (in http://www.unicef.org/education/index_44870.html)

  2. These people are dominated by a sickening religious fanaticism. None has the right to prevent or condemn someone who wants to learn.
    All have the right to education.
    Unfortunately I haven´t seen the international authorities to take action.
