Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, the 2012 presidential candidate for the
New Patriotic Party (NPP) in Ghana posted on his facebook page to
support the #BringBackOurGirls campaign.
"What has happened, regarding the abduction
of at least 276 innocent Nigerian school
girls, is a great tragedy and an outrage. I
have five daughters and can imagine the
anguish their parents are going through.
My thoughts are with the parents of these
girls, the Nigerian people and the Nigerian
government. Let Islamic authorities, the
world over, put pressure on Boko Haram to
release these girls. This is not the way to go.
In addition, it will be good to see the
leadership of the African Union (AU) and
Economic Community of West African States
(ECOWAS) exerting pressure to ensure a
speedy resolution of their predicament. It is
good to see that the world has woken up to
its responsibilities in this matter.
Everything must be done to ensure the safe
return of the girls to carry on with their lives
and education."
