Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo,
has assured Nigerians that Leah Sharibu, a Dapchi schoolgirl yet to be released
by Boko Haram, will soon regain her freedom.
Sharibu, a Christian girl among
the students abducted from Government Girls’ Science and Technical College in
Dapchi area of Yobe has remained with the insurgents for refusing to renounce
her faith.
The Vice President gave the
assurance at a concert in commemoration of the Easter celebration, yesterday in
Lagos.
He described the cross on which
Jesus Christ was nailed as a symbol of victory for those who believe in the
Lord Jesus.
According to Osinbajo, victory
was always assured in every challenge.
He said, “As I understand the
Cross, I believe that what happened was so unique. Apart from the death, there
was a trial before victory. Christ was accused of many crimes and given a death
sentence.
“What Christ went through was
beyond dying. He had already taken the pain that is why we can proudly say that
the Cross is an evidence of our own victory.
“Leah has stood up to stand by
her faith and truth. I am certain on my mind the Cross is able to deliver her.
“I am excited that we Christians
are praying for Leah who is still being held captive by insisting she will
stand by the Cross of the Lord Jesus Christ.
“The most exciting thing that a
man can have is the knowledge here on earth that we are Victor and in Heaven,
we will be counted among those that will reign with Christ in Heaven. There is
nothing better than that. It is a win-win situation.”
