The mother of the only girl from the 112 kidnapped from Government Girls’ Science and Technical College, Dapchi, Yobe State still in a Boko Haram faction captivity has begged the Federal Government to meet her abductors’ demand.
Leah Sharibu’s mother, Rebecca, made the plea on Saturday in Jos, Plateau State, at a meeting organised by Rev. Gideon Para-Mallam, founder of the Citizen Monitoring Group (CMG)
NairaFame recalls that the Islamic State West Africa Province [ISWAP] had issued a threat recently that Leah Sharibu would be killed if the FG does not meet their demand by mid-October.
She said:
“A threat has been sent out that with effect from October, Leah will be the next in line to be killed. They said she pleaded with Federal Government to do whatever is required to ensure her release before that time.”
Madam Sharibu, who frequently broke down, said it is her desire that her daughter be released on October 1. She thanked the entire world, most especially Nigerians, for standing by the family.
She also debunked the rumour that her family took the FG to court, saying they were not aware of such issue.
She explained that she was not after money and that her family was only interested in their daughter’s release.
