        The highway doesn’t take them anywhere. It is not a path to a better life or even a refugee camp. It is, quite literally, a road to nowhere.pic.twitter.com/qViVa8egdJ

        Niger’s military regularly patrols this stretch of highway. So far, Boko Haram has kept its distance. http://nyti.ms/2nzYQNi pic.twitter.com/8isKeyGnpm

        Desperate, on a Road to Nowhere

        we're so tied up with what's going on in Washington we've lost sight of what's going on in the wider world. Thank you for the focus

        We are very fortunate here in Ireland when you think of people fleeing for their lives. #WakeupIreland

        The time to give them refuge is now - before they realize that America doesn't care about them - while they still hate Boko Haram. #resist
