Malala Yousufzai
A
girls’ education campaigner, who was shot by the Taliban, Malala
Yousafzai, is expected to be in Nigeria to campaign for the release of
the schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram, the UK Telegraph reports.
Seventeen-year-old Yousafzai, who was an
early backer of the #BringBackOurGirls campaign, is due in the Nigerian
capital, Abuja, on Sunday.
In addition to meeting relatives of the kidnapped girls, she is expected to seek an audience with President Goodluck Jonathan.
Her visit to Nigeria takes place almost
three months after the abduction of the girls, who were abducted by Boko
Haram militants from a boarding school in Chibok, in north-east Borno
State, on April 14.
