United States of America presidential aspirant and former first lady, Hilary Clinton has extended her heartfelt sympathy towards the missing Chibok girls in a letter addressed to the #BringBackOurGirls BBOG advocacy group.

The advocacy group marked the second year of the abduction of 276 school girls on Thursday, April 14 as Clinton pledged more support for their cause in coming days.

In the letter, Clinton lamented that the terrorist sect, Boko Haram uses children as suicide bombers as well as violate them sexually and forcing them into marriage.

“Today marks two years since hundreds of schoolgirls were kidnapped in Chibok, Nigeria. They were taken from their dormitory in the dead of night by the terrorist group Boko Haram. Until they’re freed, they and their families won’t know peace.”

“I stand with the people of Nigeria and all those who have been working diligently to secure the safe return of the Chibok girls and bring an end to Boko Haram’s brutal acts of terror.”

“My heart aches for the hundreds of boys and girls who have been kidnapped by Boko Haram over the years. They have suffered sexual violence and forced marriage. UNICEF report that one in five suicide bombings by Boko Haram has been carried out by a child – mostly girls, some as young as 8. No child should have to endure these atrocities.”

“This anniversary is a stark reminder of the work we must do to advance equality for women and girls around the world. It’s the right thing to do, and it improves security and prosperity for everyone. That starts with freeing the Chibok girls, and stopping the terror of Boko Haram.”

The Bring Back Our Girls Advocacy Group has been on the frontline of the struggle to ensure that the kidnap girls get a taste of freedom again since 2014.
