Alarede Professional School of Engager operated by TV personality, Mrs Foluso Ogunjimi staged a 'Bring Back Our Girls' rally on Tuesday may 20, 2014. The peaceful protest which is one of the many going on around the world was fashioned to pressurise the government to stepping up their efforts at rescuing the 234 school girls abducted by Boko Haram in Chibok Borno state.

Mrs Ogunjimi and her crew marched from their school base in Oregun Lagos towards Agidingbi and stopped at Alausa the seat of power in Lagos state where the deputy governor of Lagos Mrs Adejoke Orelope attended to the team and promised to deliver their message to the governor Babatunde Raji Fashola.   

According to Mrs Ogunjimi who adorned a red t-shirt alongside her team in solidarity to the rescue call 'I am optimistic the girls will come back alive, we are all praying for their return back home. I can imagine what their parents would be going through right now, every child is important if you have five and one is missing you will abandon the four to look out for the one missing. Our government should step up their rescue efforts and we will not stop until those girls come back alive'

On the night of 14–15 April 2014, approximately 276 female students were kidnapped from the Government Secondary School in the town of Chibok in Borno State, Nigeria. The kidnappings were claimed by Boko Haram, an Islamic Jihadist and Takfiri terrorist organization based in northeast Nigeria. And since the incident well meaning Nigerians home and abroad have called for the release of those girls without any condition attached, foreign military support have also joined in the search for the girls said to still be inside Sambisa forest in Borno.
