The Dapchi Christian Schoolgirl, Leah Sharibu, has delivered
a second baby in Boko Haram captivity, according to a United States-based
group, US-Nigeria Law Group.
The group noted that the young girl had both children in
2020 following the terrorists’ announcement of her childbirth earlier in 2020,
adding “We are still investigating this.”
The group lamented the condition Ms Sharibu has found
herself as it could be argued that the government has abandoned the Dapchi
“heroine Christian” schoolgirl.
Leah, who has now spent 3 years in captivity (just for being
a Christian) was forced to denounce her faith and accept Islam before being
married off to a top Boko Haram commander.
She was abducted from her school in Dapchi, Yobe State in
early 2018 alongside 109 other female students at the age between 11 and 19
years.
Emmanuel Ogebe, convener of the US-Nigeria Law Group,
lamented in a statement that “despite an offer by an American pastor last month
to surrender himself in exchange for Leah’s freedom, there has been no tangible
response from her captors.
“That notwithstanding, intelligence received on the status
of Leah indicates that she has delivered a second child in captivity.
“While we have not corroborated this by multiple sources, a
usually knowledgeable source indicated that she delivered a second child late
last year.
“This means both children were born in 2020 as the
terrorists announced her childbirth earlier in 2020. We are still investigating
this.”
The Federal Government, under President Muhammadu Buhari had
vowed to do anything possible to free Leah Sharibu from the terrorists but 3
years have passed now and the innocent schoolgirl, a good number of Chibok
schoolgirls and many other unreported cases are still in captive.
