The first lady took to her social media accounts on Thursday, March 8, 2018, to make the appeal.

She posted, “Today, I congratulate Nigerian Women on the occasion of International Women’s Day. For us in Nigeria, this year’s #InternationalWomensDay comes with a difference.

“We have to reflect the sad incidences of the abduction of our daughters, especially the recent one in #Dapchi Yobe State. This for us should take center stage.

“That is why we decided to develop a local theme: #LeaveOurDaughtersAlone as a strong call for the end of this national disaster and hope for their release.”
