American R&B singer, Alicia Keys has showed her support for the #BringBackOurGirls cause by urging the world not to give up on the missing Chibok girls.
The Grammy Award winner spoke during an interview on CNN and expressed shock that the over 200 girls were still in captivity 6 months after their abduction.
She said:
“Six months and nobody is back and the girls are just there because of the need of education and they are abducted? So that is why we must say that we are not allowing this to dissipate, no, we are going to continue to say we are not standing for this, it is not okay,”
“Putting the spotlight on these girls is very, very important to me and I thought that it is my job to help shine the light on what is going on and show people: this is still happening and we must not forget and it is going on for six months,”
Keys, who is pregnant with her second child, recently started a movement called “We Are Here” which aims to create a better world for the next generation.
