I was at a fascinating meeting on The Situation in Kenya and the surrounding states. When you think about the girls that were kidnapped in Nigeria back 2 years ago, can it really be that long!
The other gentleman was from Nigeria and his brother was killed by the followers of Boko Haram and was there to support Alan who was the main speaker. He was here at the meeting with Alan Channer and about to go out to Kenya later in the week! We hear nothing in the press about what is going on in Northern Kenya and North Eastern Nigeria because those who are interested are not in touch with global media! The gentleman who was with him was Dr Aliyu Musa from Coventry University. The audience was horrified with what was happening and unfortunately one of the things they needed was money. For flights to get over there and in hospitals to take of those wounded in battle.
When you think of all the money used to buy footballers or athletes, men or women. In fact there is a film out about Bill Gates who donates some of his income, to deserving causes.
You look a television and you see the families trying to make a new beginning, and your heart bleeds!
