Nollywood actress, Genevieve Nnaji turned 35
today May 3. The Etisalat brand ambassador
was born on May 3, 1979. Instead of
celebrating herself, Genny as she is fondly
called by close pals, is still grieving over the
missing schoolgirls in Borno state. In her
birthday message, the Imo born actress begs
the government to do everything possible to
rescue the girls, as their abduction goes
against everything Africans have fought for.
Read her message below:
“I’ve always been of the belief that less
words and more action speaks greater volumes.
But in this case of no foreseen action, I
believe some talking is in order. The abduction
of these young girls goes against everything
that we as Africans fought for, for so many
years. What we as Nigerians have been faced
with and have been fighting over these past
years.
“Not to mention what we women and mothers
still fight against till this very day.
Kidnapping, abduction, slavery, child bride and
the complete disrespect and disregard for
human life and rights is ..in my opinion, every
wrong that seems to be getting away here.
Reports say that our babies are being shipped
off to neighboring countries, distributed and
married off.
“How could this be when we have appointed
men to protect us? Why are we called giants
if we can’t trample over ants? Enough of
these setbacks!! There are way too many
distractions for this Nation to achieve its
true potential. It is time to respond and to
act!!
I know it’s not easy being a leader of a
country but like some people love to point out
to me.. just when they are about to
sympathize with the challenges that comes
with being in my position and then remember
the perks, YOU KNOW WHAT YOU SIGNED
UP FOR. Pls we implore, we plead and we beg,..
Save our girls! Help bring the girls back home
by doing as little as signing this petition,” she
wrote.
Thanks Genny!!! Hope they see this
