Other Nigerian cities have also held rallies, and they have been replicated in cities like Los Angeles, New York, Kingston, Jamaica, and even in Afghanistan, leader Oby Ezekwesili told the crowd.

"The global advocacy for the girls of Chibok started from local advocacy for the girls of Chibok," Ezekwesili said. "The advocacy started online, and moved offline."
She told the crowd that the hashtag #BringBackOurGirls, which organizers have used to unite the movement and catalyze international attention, has been tweeted or retweeted more than 3 million times.
