PDP Women Leader, Kema Chikwe, spoke yesterday at the party secretariat in Abuja during a prayer session.
She made the demand at the event tagged women’s Christian and Muslim Prayer Session for the security and unity of the nation.
It would be recalled that on April 15, 2014, more than 200 female students were kidnapped at the Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, an act which has since been attributed to the dreaded Boko Haram sect.
Kema said “Let the truth be told with God’s intervention. Our hearts are bleeding, not just broken. Please God send the Chibok girls home to their mothers and families.
“We plead with the school authorities to release their names and their pictures. Let God touch the hearts of those who know and have perpetrated this heinous action.”
Continuing, she described Boko Haram as monster that has taken the lives of so many innocent Nigerians, stressing “there are many questions to be asked and many more to be answered.
“How did it happen? Who saw it happen? Who did not see it happen? Who is behind this? Those behind these crimes love darkness rather than light because their deeds are evil.
“Today, we will pray for miraculous revelations and solutions to this issue. We have convened this prayer session to bare our hearts to God as Christians and Muslims.
“We shall make a way in our hearts for God to come in and settle, as we are contact points of our party members and all Nigerian women.”
Chairman of the prayer session, Helen Esuene, also said “women are noted to stand for peace. Whenever there is a breach of peace or issue of environment of violence it touches the heart of women most.
“We are home builders we carried kids for nine months and we know it is not an easy path. When something happens to our children it rips the heart of every woman.”
