Alicia Keys organizes #BringBackOurGirls protest in New York.


Alicia Keys organized a protest for the missing Chibok girls in front of the Nigerian consulate in New York on Tuesday.

It has been six months since the girls were kidnapped from their school by Boko Haram. The Nigerian government has been unable to rescue the girls and there is increasing fear that the girls may never return.

The 33-year-old singer held a rally along with about 30 women, to mark the sixth month anniversary of the kidnap. She was joined by husband Swizz Beatz.

Alicia Keys whose son turned four years old on the day said 'Today is my son's birthday and it is also making me stand in solidarity with all the mothers of the Chibok girls who have been abducted for six months and are still missing.'

'It is just outrageous that that's going on, some people have even told me they've heard things about 'there's been progress,' but there hasn't been progress because the girls aren't back.'

Adding: 'So I think that we get mixed information. We don't know, so we just have to keep being made aware of what's happening.'
