Madam Due Process, how you have proven to us that you do not need a title, or position, to make a difference.
Oby Ezekwesili, history will remember you as one of the greatest amazons of our time. One who stood out among a legendary race of female warriors the likes of Mary Slessor, Rosa Parks, Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti, etc.

How you crossed the tribal, religious, political, and other divides that overbearingly transverse the Nigerian landscape to stand for the rights of your people.
How you braved the threats, government spin, the uncomfortable protest settings, to lead the charge to #BringBackOurGirls.
How you lent a significant voice to millions of faceless people, in the drive to #BringBackOurGirls.

How you have neither tired, nor relented, in this selfless campaign. How you have stood in the face of dwindling numbers, and dissenting voices.
How you have weathered the storms of character assassination, police brutality and intimidation.
Madam Due Process, how you have proven to us that you do not need a title, or position, to make a difference.
How you are making a difference.
History will not forget and we certainly will not forget.
We will not forget you and the thousands that continue to march the physical and social media streets.
"In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." - Martin Luther King, Jr.
45 days plus and still on #BringBackOurGirls
