Former UK Prime Minister- Gordon Brown Calls for British Forces to Be Deloyed to Nigeria to #BringBackOurGirls

Though we seem to have forgotten about them on social media, the over 200 girls who were kidnapped by Boko Haram in Nigeria are still missing—and officials say they are still on a search for these girls.

Former UK Prime Minister- Gordon Brown has called for British forces to be deployed to Nigeria to aid the rescue of the schoolgirls being held captive by Islamic militants.

Speaking to MPs last night, Gordon Brown said the failure to rescue the girls, who were kidnapped by the terrorist group Boko Haram two months ago, demanded an ‘international and domestic response’.

‘We have to do more to help the Nigerian government secure the rescue of the girls,’ he said.

‘While it is right to recognise there has been a great deal of international support, it is also right to acknowledge that in its hour of need, Nigeria does require more helicopter support, more aircraft cover, more surveillance equipment.’

Though Britain and several African countries have already established an intelligence unit to help the Nigerian authorities, the result is not forthcoming and more must be done to #BringBackOurGirls.

It is sad the social media campaign has died down…
