In order to keep the issue of Nigerias missing girls at the forefront of peoples minds, an organization decided to make placards of each missing girl and put them up around Falomo Roundabout in Lagos (pictured). This weekend, though, Nigerian police secretly took the placards down in the middle of the night, angering citizens and activists. Here, Enough is Enough Nigeria Community Relations Manager Ijeoma Mba wrote about this egregious offense, saying: This is completely unacceptable, especially since permission was granted to place the placards there. Even with the placards down, we will continue to show our concern and fierce dedication. Every life is valuable and we have a responsibility as citizens to not simply let this go. We remember that it could have been any of us taken or killed by terrorists, which is why we must be relentless. In the coming days, we hope we get an answer or an explanation as to why the police force would commit such an act. Shame on Nigerias police!
