Oby Ezekwesili, the leader of the BringBackOurGirls activists and former Minister of Education, has reacted to the release of 21 Chibok School girls by the Boko Haram terrorists.
Ezekwesili, who spurted our several ‘thank you’s’ to President Muhammadu Buhari for aiding the release of the girls, said she was in “a mix of multiple emotions”.
“I can only weep, right now. You know that kind of cry that is a mix of multiple emotions. Lord. Some of OUR Girls ARE BACK!!! B. A. C. K.!!” she tweeted.
“As WE @BBOG_Nigeria wait for FG and #ChibokParents identification of OUR 21 #ChibokGirls, THANK YOU, LORD. THANK YOU, @MBuhari .Thank you.”
Ezekwesili added that even though it was 4am in the part of the United States that she was, she could no longer sleep.
“It is 4am in California and I can no longer sleep. Join me in singing the words of Psalm126… “When the Lord turned again the CAPTIVITY…”
