Nigerian women would on Wednesday April 30th
in Abuja stage a one-million-women march tagged "Free our girls" to
press for the release of the schoolgirls that were abducted from Girls
Government college in Chibok, Borno state on Monday April 14th.
The call for the protest was made during an emergency
meeting put together by the Borno state first lady, Hajia Nana Kashim Shettima, yesterday. Coordinator of the protest Prof. Hauwa Abdu Biu said the march is expected to involve every woman in the
country.
Earlier
on at the meeting, the first lady amids sobs called on all
women to join in efforts to free the abducted girls and also called on
wives of heads of Security agents, some of whom were present at the
meeting to help plead with their spouses to intensify their efforts in
the search for the girls
"I want to use this opportunity to appeal to wives of security chiefs at the national and state levels to mount pressures on their spouses to intensify effort to rescue our dear children. However, I feel it is necessary to call on all women in Borno to come up with their resolutions and harmonize them. Let us all put our differences aside irrespective of our faith, or ethnicity, let us all join hands together to rescue these girls, I know that we can do it, Almighty Allah is with us, He knows our intention. I am sure for now we are not on our own, I am happy to inform you that the wife of the president called me two days ago, I believe that she is also with us, let us all join hands together irrespective of political affiliations.” she said
Meanwhile, Director of Defence Information, Maj-Gen
Chris Olukolade says the military is getting closer to the Boko Haram
base where the girls are being kept. He said this yesterday during a tour
with journalist to some of Boko Haram bases where the military has
been able to dismantle.
"The bases we visited are part of the responses to the terrorist offensive and that is an achievement; the military had moved close to where the insurgents are. It shows that the military had taken over the land. The morale of the soldiers was high, and we are expecting to see more successes from the troops” he said.

*sips brukutu
FoxZulu out
Iro nla ni gbo yen..D military and the govt know the boko haram, they are just pretending........Jay_bliss
They should be marching to their state goverment house not abuja, what is the role of the state governor first among other functions,is he not the chief security officer of the state. Why go far .
They ar stil moving closer.. I feel for dis gals evn d military cos im sure they ar also scard of deir lives. Bh plsss. We ar beggn una
These women should stop this silly action..This is not robbery act is abduction as those animals called boko haram are using those girls as shields..Any force to rescue those kids will be very tragic and fatal...They should allow the security agents to work out plans and free those kids unhurt..I believe these women are been use by some politicians...
Can't wait to hear the last of this evil
~BONARIO~says so via LUMIA
Am in full support.
Supported.I wish I live at abujaAbuja.
the march should have commenced in Bornu state then to Abuja then to the defense headquarters then to the villa
The girls will be released, but, not because of their march.
Prophet TB Joshua said 'God has spoken that the girls will be rescued, some have escaped already but are yet to come out of the forest, they'll then pinpoint where they were kept, for the rest to be rescued'. The military or whatever have to plan the rescue mission strategically...

I strongly support
I appreciate deir concern bt I realy pray this act will not aggravate BH's anger.bt d military are still gettg close for almost a month? I just wish we can emulate the US and save dese girls gently jst lk how Osama was captured witout plenty noise/publicity...............VivOtex!
Pray tell what is "silly" about women protesting and asking for the girls to be freed??? Your statement is insentitive. The military is doing what it knows best, yes, but should the parents and mothers stop putting pressure on the government and military??? Most DEFINITELY NOT!!!!!
Good luck to them
God, help us.
Wonderful idea. Standing ovation for this protest. It resonates so deeply with me. The power of women to change situations is amazing. I enjoin all women, regardless of religion or ethnicity to join them. If you are not in Nigeria, please join them in prayers and goodwill.
May God help our country and the innocent girls who have been abducted. May HE continue to watch over all of us and our loved ones, even as we partner with HIM in actions, words and thoughts. To all the ladies involved in this march, fear not! Your little acts of protests will cause enormous positive changes. May God bless all your efforts.
So they should just sit and do nothing about it? What if ur sister was one doss kids...no disrespect sir but if u r not goin to help let others who will do what dey can..One love#Naija
You wear black, red or blue, will anything change?
Anon 2:28, I dnt blame u for calling dem silly, bcos am so sure u dnt knw hw it feels or hw dey r feeling, if ur child or ward is among the abducted girls, am nt sure u W̶̲̥̅̊ȋ̊ƪƪ call der action SILLY.... I support d one million march
#GIFTEDhands
Everybody is bumping the government to help rescue our girls but no one is acknowledging the fact that our girls could lose their lives if force is applied.
Pls keep us updated so we know where and when.
PLEASE WHERE IS DAME PATIENCE JONATHAN. She would forming unecessary women committee, wasting the govt money sayin she is promotin the women in the society. Since this incidence hv nt seen her break light or heard nythin from her on this issue. Such hypocrizy.
C dis fool! U can go naked too.
Hummm I pray BH won't come and land one bomb in their path.
Next now GEJ supporter will say that they are been sponsored by the opposition party
I see Boko Haram hiting a world record dat day...okay dey won't make any hit, d wives of d sponsor re gonna be there...
@funminista, idiot enemy of progress ------- The Moon !
U can say that when your daughter is kidnapped by boko haram. Idiot!
There is a saying "when the corpse isn't yours, one tends to think it's just a stick".
Shey when this same BH was killing Christians (including mothers and daughters), madam 1st Lady you didn't know how to organise 1million woman march.
Now the corpses are yours, you know what it feels like abi......
All the same I pray for the safe release of all these girls, only God knows what kind of things they have been through, over the past 3weeks. Kai
Dear Lord, crown their effort with glory
May God also protect them from evil men as they do the March. Amen
i pray the protest will yield result. may God help us
