Malala writes open letter to parents of kidnapped Chibok Girls

Girl child activist, Malala Yousafzai, wrote an open
letter to the parents of Chibok girls, missing now
for two years. The letter reads;
Dear mothers and fathers, I write this
letter with a heavy heart, knowing you
have endured another year separated
from your daughters. I think of you every
day since we first met two years ago --
and join millions of people around the world
in praying for the safety and swift return
of your girls.
As I did last year, I call on President
Buhari of Nigeria — and everyone who can
help rescue the Chibok girls — to act now.
Would a president give up the fight for his
own daughter? These girls are just as
precious to their families. Parents, thank
you for having the courage to send your
daughters to school. My dream is that one
day they will come home, finish their
education and choose their futures for
themselves. I pray for the day when you
can embrace your girls again.
Your sister, Malala
