21 More Reasons To Smile

I woke up to the happy news that 21 Chibok school girls who were abducted by Boko Haram in 2014 have been released. According to news reports, they were freed after negotiations with their captors.

These girls are among the over 200 schoolgirls kidnapped by the Islamist insurgents in April 2014. After 2years and 6months in captivity, they have finally been released to join their families! What an awesome news.

Well done #BringBackOurGirls group for the continued advocacy, and all who have been praying for their safe return all over the world. I must also commend the brave Nigerian soldiers who have been putting their lives on the line for our safety. God bless you all.

I can’t imagine how their families and loved ones must have felt during this trying period. It’s such a relief to hear this news. Let’s not forget the rest of the girls and others who have been held captive. I sincerely pray that God will comfort and strengthen the rest of the awaiting parents and bring all the girls back home.
