The petition was organised by the pupils of Sugar Hill primary school in Newton Aycliffe in Sedgefield in my constituency, where they managed to collect 212 signatures.
The petition states:
The Petition of residents of Sedgefield,
Declares that 200 Nigerian school girls have been kidnapped by Boko Haram and further that the Petitioners believe that more could be done internationally to ensure their safe release.
The Petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urges the UK government to do all in its power to ensure that the 200 kidnapped school girls are released and returned to their families.
And the Petitioners remain, etc.
