I can feel the situation and the circumstances
through which you are suffering now.
She has experienced suffering herself after
being shot by the Taliban and now Malala Use-af-zai,
is lending her support to the families of
more than 200 schoolgirls kidnapped in Nigeria.
The 17 year old - who was shot in the head
in October 2012 for promoting female education,
met with around 10 relatives of the missing
Nigerian girls who were kidnapped by Boko
Haram back in April.
Malala told the parents, some of whom were
visibly upset, she will campaign for the release
of their daughters.
I consider those girls as my sisters.
They are my sisters, and I'm going to speak
up for them until they are released, and I'm going
to participate actively in Bring Back Our
Girls campaign to make sure that they return
safely and they continue their education,
and thank you so much to you as well, that
you are such brave parents, that you're speaking
up for your daughters and aren't ignoring
it, and for you their life is precious and
for you their life is like your own life,
so think you so much for your great work and
for such courage that you have... You are
brave parents, really brave parents.
The young peace campaigner, who was accompanied
by her father, also reiterated to the parents
that she and others around the world are standing
with them.
And I can feel the situation and circumstances
to which you are suffering now, and it's quite
difficult for a parent to know that their
daughter isn't with them, and she's been abducted
by a group. We all don't know in which kind
of conditions they will be, so it's a very
sad moment, and we express our solidarity
with you and we are with you. We are standing
up with you.
Bring back our girls. Now and alive.
