Some Christians and family members on Friday gathered at the capital city in Abuja to pray for Leah Sharibu and other victims in Boko Haram captivity.

The service was held in commemoration of Leah’s two years in captivity.

They also called on the government to as a matter of urgency do more to put an end to the often security situation in the country.

Recall that, on February 19,2018, Leah along with over 100 girls were forcibly abducted by Boko Haram insurgents from their hostel at the Government Girls Science Technical College, Dapchi, Yobe State.  Though her mates were later released, she was  held back for refusing to renounce her Christian faith. There were reports late January that she had given birth to a boy.

Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) on Wednesday held a church service and a  peaceful march to mark the second year of Miss Leah Sharibu in Boko Haram captivity.

At a  news conference in Abuja, Rev. Ayokunle and  Enenche said since the Federal Government was not unaware of the killings in the country, it must take urgent steps to defeat  Boko Haram.
