hikâyesini anlatmak istiyorum.
that lights up her face.
gülümsemeye sahip.
for the rest of her life.
geri kalanını da tedaviyle geçirecek.
that was carrying the girls.
she broke both her legs,
bacağını da kırdı ve çalılıklarda
to hide in the bushes.
üzerinde sürüklenmek zorunda kaldı.
that Boko Haram would come back for her.
geri dönmesinden korktuğunu söyledi.
by jumping off trucks that day.
atlayarak kaçan 57 kızdan birisi oydu.
Malala and others
diğerleri gibi insanlar protestolarda
I was living in London at the time --
yaşıyordum -- Londra'dan Abuja'ya,
to cover the World Economic Forum
yaptığı Dünya Ekonomik Forumu'nda
for the first time.
that there was only one story in town.
yalnızca bir hikâyenin dolaştığı açıktı.
about what they were doing
için ne yaptıklarına dair
with our line of questioning,
onları memnun etmemişti ve
our fair share of "alternative facts."
payımızı aldık diyelim.
were telling us at the time
the political situation in Nigeria.
in Nigeria today
Chibok kızlarının aslında
were never kidnapped.
hâlâ inanan insanlar var.
insanlarla konuştum --
Boko Haram kidnapped their daughters,
kamyonların ardından
after the trucks carrying their daughters.
harap edilmiş aileler.
but they were forced to turn back
Boko Haram'ın silahları olduğundan,
the news agenda moved on,
boyunca kaçınılmaz olarak değişti
about the Chibok girls.
çok fazla şey duymadık.
bir videonun görüntüsü
I obtained this video.
to the northeast of Nigeria
Nijerya'nın kuzeydoğusuna
too long for confirmation.
when she watched the video, told me
izlediğinde bana bilgisayarın
into the laptop
like myself, in the audience,
benim gibi ebeveyn olanlar,
negotiation talks with Boko Haram.
anlaşma konuşmalarının başlangıcı oldu.
that because of this video
bu video sayesinde konuşmalara
that the Chibok girls were dead.
olduklarını düşündüklerini söyledi.
in October last year.
yirmi bir kız serbest bırakıldı.
still remain missing.
ortalama 200 kız hâlâ kayıp.
a dispassionate observer
tarafsız bir gözlemci olmadığımı
about the wasted opportunities
kaçırılan o fırsatları düşündüğümde
what the parents have told me,
bu kızlar eğer zengin ve güçlü ailelerin
of the rich and the powerful,
önceden bulunurlardı deyişlerini
for the delay in their return.
erteleyen nedenin bir kısmı da bu.
the deadly danger of fake news.
ölümcül tehlikelerini sergiliyor.
to stop the spread of fake news.
zeki insanlar, zeki mühendisler var.
everybody here -- you and I --
buradaki herkesin -- sizin ve benim --
the stories online.
hikâyeleri paylaşan biziz.
sert sorular soruyorum.
by sharing this information?
to ask tougher questions
daha sert sorular sorarak yaklaşmaya
don't even read beyond headlines
paylaşmadan önce başlığın ötesini
that we discover at face value?
almayı bıraksak ne olur?
about the consequence
sonucunu ve onun şiddet
violence or hatred?
about the real-life consequences
gerçek hayattaki sonuçlarını

Why you should listen
Stephanie Busari moved to Lagos from London in July 2016 to pioneer CNN's first digital and multimedia bureau. She also reports on-air in breaking news situations for CNN International.
In April 2016 Busari exclusively obtained the "proof of life" video that showed that the missing Chibok schoolgirls who were kidnapped in Nigeria in 2014 were still alive. She was also an instrumental member of the CNN team that won a Peabody Award in May 2015 for the network's coverage of the missing girls. Busari recently won a Gracie Award for her persistence in covering this story, and she's also a previous recipient of the Outstanding Woman in the Media Awards.
Busari is a passionate community activist who curated TEDxBrixton for three years before she left London. She founded TEDxBrixton in 2013 driven by a desire to bring disparate elements of her community together and to create a platform for those who wouldn't normally have one to share their ideas worth spreading.
A passionate and adept public speaker, Busari is regularly invited to share her insights and host panels. She has spoken at UN Women, Said Business School, Oxford, Africa Gathering among others.
Over a 15-year career, Busari has worked as a news reporter, entertainment and features writer, court reporter and columnist, and she has been published in many of the UK and international media's most influential outlets, such as the BBC and Daily Mirror.
During a six-month stint in Northern Ireland in 2003, Busari spent time in some of the worst affected areas of "The Troubles" and secured interviews with a crucifixion victim, government ministers and paramilitaries. While there, she also launched and edited an award-winning lifestyle column.
A native Yoruba speaker, Busari also speaks fluent French and is currently learning Hausa.
