Dear ,

As you may already know, the campaign to demand President Buhari to keep his promises and secure the release of the remaining

89 Chibok Girls, Leah Sharibu

, and others before he hands over power on

May 29

 is already in full swing. But we need more people to join us in this crucial mission.

Remember how a

by Ibrahim Abdulahi kickstarted the

#BringBackOurGirls

movement and drew global attention to the plight of the abducted girls? 

Well, we need to do the same thing. Your tweets, posts, WhatsApp statuses - they can make a difference. It might just be what forces the President to deploy all his constitutional powers to bring these girls back. Let's remind President Buhari using the hashtag 

that he made a promise to the Nigerian people and that he must keep it.

#OsunDecided: BVAS to the Rescue
