Mercy Johnson writes in tears as she talks about the Missing #CHIBOK Girls[MUST READ] #TheElitePartyinJuly #IRepEntertain9jarBlog #RIPBrazil via @myentertain9jar

The star actress writes on the missing Chibok
girls. Find her article below…
Sometimes, our realities remind us of the pain
of others. My reality as a mother is that I get
to see my daughter every day, while the reality
of the mothers of the kidnapped 234 Chibok
girls is that they don’t even know where their
daughters are.
I looked at my daughter and tears came to my
eyes that some mothers have the privileges of
seeing their kids on a daily basis while the
mothers of the kidnapped girls can only
console themselves with memories. Continue…
All well-meaning Nigerians must come together
and help these mothers who have been in pain
for more than two weeks and make the memory
a reality — the reality of seeing their children
again. Let us not for once think that the evil-
doers who turn the realities of these mothers
to memories cannot do the same to us if they
have the opportunities.
This is not a war against select group of
people; it is a war against all well-meaning
mothers in Nigeria as injustice to one is
injustice to all. Let the mothers rise, the men
who love them should stand by their right hand
and the children who adore them on their left
and do all we can in our spheres of influence to
ensure that the children come back home safe
so that the mothers can smile again.
Can you pray? Increase the tempo of your
prayers. Can you fast? Add extra days to it. If
what you can do is protest, please do; perhaps
you are a soldier and can go to the war front
please do not sit still. You are a politician or a
voice that Boko Haram can listen to, please
speak.
We need the girls back!!! They are innocent,
they have their future ahead of them, please
do not cut it short. I dare say some of them
will end up being the solution we desire to
restore the lost and battered glory of this
nation. Please don’t kill or damage the future all
in the name of militancy.
I appeal to the soldiers and other security
operatives, don’t be demoralised, please fight
hard, fight more and fight on. Do not let this
evil people for once think that they can get
away with this. If they ever get away with this,
let me assure you that we won’t all be able to
sleep with our eyes closed and that includes
you, your wives and children. If an Emir can be
killed in his palace, who is safe in his or her
home? Nobody!
I appeal to the political class and those in
power, do not think that any right-thinking
Nigerian would allow that this matter be swept
under the carpet, this isn’t one of the matters
we would keep mum about. We will continue
talking, praying, protesting until you make the
matter your matter. If your child were one of
the children that was abducted, we would
probably have heard of the end of the matter.
Let’s not fold our arms and let evil reign.
Nigeria shall be great, only if we do the right
thing and the right thing at this moment is to
bring our girls back and alive.
