Mrs. Rebecca Sharibu, mother of Leah Sharibu, the Christian schoolgirl abducted by Boko Haram in 2018, has marked her daughter’s 22nd birthday, which also signifies her seventh in captivity.

Leah was one of the 110 students taken from the Government Girls’ Science and Technical College in Dapchi, Yobe State, on February 19, 2018.

While the majority of the girls were later released, Leah was reportedly denied freedom after she refused to renounce her Christian faith.

In a video message shared on Thursday via Open Doors UK’s social media platform, Mrs. Sharibu expressed sorrow over the prolonged separation from her daughter.

She said it had been over seven years since Leah was taken and described the pain of her continued absence as deeply distressing.

She stated that her faith remained strong and said she believed God is still able to bring Leah home.

She urged all who believe in justice and in the power of prayer to remember not only her daughter but others who remain in captivity for their religious beliefs.
