To mark the 6th
month of the
Chibok Girls
abduction, singer,
Alicia Keys led a
group of #
BringBackOurGirls protesters and
stormed the Nigerian consulate in
New York on Tuesday.
Carrying different placards and chanting
‘When do we want them? Now! Now!
Alive!’, the protesters raised awareness
about the missing girls, noting that their
story is in danger of being forgotten.
Over 200 schoolgirls had been abducted
by members of the Boko Haram terrorist
group on April 14
and although some of the girls managed to
escape, most of them are still in captivity
and their fates unknown.
Alicia Keys who was also celebrating her
son’s fourth birthday wrote on her
instagram: “On my lil guys birthday I
stand with the mothers of Chibok!!”
The pregnant star was also joined by her
husband, Swizz Beatz.
“Today is my son’s birthday and it is also
making me stand in solidarity with all the
mothers of the Chibok girls who have
been abducted for six months and are still
missing,’ she said.
“It is just outrageous that that’s going on
“Some people have even told me they’ve
heard things about ‘there’s been progress,’
but there hasn’t been progress because the
girls aren’t back.’
“So I think that we get mixed information.
We don’t know, so we just have to keep
being made aware of what’s happening,”
she said.
