On this day. Nigeria’s capital, Abuja, was
thrown into deep sorrow as Nigeria’s terrorist group, Boko Haram bomb a popular
motor park at Nyanya. The attack was considered as one of the worst ever
carried out by the Islamic Militant Group as it left hundreds of people dead and
several others with diverse degrees of injury.
That same day, by dusk, more than 250 Chibok
Government Secondary School Girls were kidnapped at night from their school by
the same Boko Haram group. The kidnapping raised voices from all over the
world. The hash tag #BringBackOurGirls was introduced on social media to put
more pressure on the Nigerian Government to rescue the school girls from the
Islamic faction.
Today, this blog and the entire
world remember those directly or indirectly affected by the Nyanya bomb blast
and the kidnap of Chibok School Girls. Everyone (Government, NGOs, individuals, etc.) who had
in one way or the other promised to see to the plight of those affected,
especially in the Nyanya bomb blast should deliver their promises.
