I’m Not Seeking Attention With Chibok Girls—stella Damasus by aproko247: 4:13pm On Jul 02, 2014
Sultry Nollywood actress, Stella Damasus has disclosed that she is not seeking attention with the missing schoolgirls of a Chibok secondary school in Borno State.

There have been speculations that the actress was seeking a cheap popularity with the saga, following her attack on the government over the way the issue has been handled. Also some days ago, it was said that some gunmen stormed his alleged lover’s home in Abuja looking for her.

Reacting to rumour that she suddenly turned a social activist all in the name of staying relevant, Stella disclosed she is standing for the truth and not for any attention. She went on the social media to disclose that she won’t stop standing for what she believes in.

“No matter what anyone tries to do, it will not stop me from speaking the truth and standing up for the rights of women and young girls,” Stella said some days ago. “These are the kind of things that get people scared of and run away from; standing up for their rights,” she added.

“It’s a pity that we say Nigeria is a democratic country, but where is the democracy when people cannot speak their minds for fear of threats like this or danger of being killed,” the mother of two queried, boosting that, “I am not one of those who shout in the morning and then at night I go behind the public and accept ‘Ghana must go’ from those who are causing these problems.”

“We all see what is wrong and what is going on,” she noted, warning that, “shutting me up will not put an end to the issues we are facing.”

“If we don’t deal with these things now, what kind of society are we leaving behind for our children and their children? she asked, observing that, “definitely not a place where they can live in freedom and peace.”

“This is not a popularity contest but about speaking the truth and standing up for what is right,” Stella pointed out, stating that, “they should shift the focus from me and place priority on the matters at hand, and place it on the safety of Nigerians, rescuing the abducted girls, deleting the bill that legally puts our little girls in the hands of paedophiles, paying attention to the amount of women dying from domestic violence daily, unemployment, inadequate health care, proper education, pension funds, economic development and all the other things that are affecting the nation.”

It's only fools that will call the genuine show of care by Stella towards the missing girls, a show-off.
