American R&B singer Alicia Keys has implored the Nigerian government not to relent in their pursuit for the release of the kidnapped Chibok girls.
Keys was amazed that the girls had been in captivity for over 6 months now, and campaigned for their release.
She spoke just as the Bring Back Our Girls campaign group in Abuja, last night, held a candle light vigil to mark the 180th day of the abduction of the girls from Government Secondary School, Chibok, Bornow State.
“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,” she said.
