“Are we going to say that those kids just went away?” – Mary Njoku is angry about the kidnapping of Oyo
Nollywood actress Mary Njoku has expressed anger and heartbreak over the abduction of children in Oyo State, questioning what is being done to ensure their release.
Speaking on her Instagram story, the actress said she woke up angry, upset and deeply concerned about the fate of the kidnapped children.
She wondered how innocent children could go missing without immediate measures being taken to bring them home.
“Do we really want to say that these abducted children just disappeared? Are we saying that nothing more can be done? That innocent children and young children can disappear, and somehow the rest of us are expected to carry on as if nothing happened?” she asked.
The IrokoTV boss also wondered if Nigerians have become desensitized to the growing cases of kidnappings, bandit attacks and insecurity across the country.
Mary Njoku lamented that reports of abductions and violent attacks have become so common that many people are now reacting with resignation rather than haste.
“Have we become so numb to the endless reports of bandits, kidnappings and insecurity in Nigeria that we are barely moved anymore? Is this what we have come to accept as normal?” she added.
Her comments have since resonated with many Nigerians online, with several social media users agreeing that more must be done to save the Oyo school victims and protect vulnerable citizens from criminal attacks.
Mary Njoku joins other celebrities who have condemned the abduction of 46 children in Oyo State, a tragedy that has sparked outrage across the country.
