Today I awoke to the news of the 200 girls who have been abducted against their will.
Today I awoke to mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, grandparents, uncle, aunts, friends pleading. Today I awoke to multiple leaders, celebrities and public figures wearing signs with the statement of "Bring our Girls Back."
Today I awoke to the beast and painful reality of life. I awoke wondering where has the boy child, man gone.
I awoke wondering where these demonic acts have come and stemmed from?
I woke up wondering what possessed a boy child, now man to commit such cruel acts to another human being, a girl child. I woke up wondering why masked men would take pride in video taping themselves with body armour and feel proud to have abducted innocent young girls. I am awake to the fact that the boy child's soul was once abducted and he turned his torments into cruel acts of vengeance and as an excuse to temporary cure his absurd mind.
For I wondered what could forsake a human soul to harm another. In the soul of the once boy child, dare I imagine peace in their hearts, for in order for peace to exist there would be no cruel acts. For a boy child I imagine endless torment, guilt and regret. For a boy child I pledge for you not to forget - you once belonged to a family which consisted of a mother, father, grandparents, brothers, sisters, uncle, aunts, friends who once pleaded for you and for your life. Today I awake and plead among the masses for you to awaken to the reality that the girl child is not your enemy nor is your community your enemy. Today, I hope is the day you wake up to the realty of you, and realise that you, only you are your own worst enemy
For a boy child now a man who has awoken to themselves, would dream of only peace and in supporting their community. Today, I hope you awake to the fact that brotherhood only exists with the support of the community and love of family and friends. Today I hope is the day you awaken to fact that the girl child is not your enemy
