A Kenya-based international non-governmental organisation [NGO], CitizenGO has lamented the nonchalant attitude of the federal government with respect to Leah Sharibu, the young school girl abandoned in Boko Haram terrorists’ den.

Speaking on behalf of CitizenGO’s entire team, Ann Kioko lamented “empty promises” by the President Muhammadu Buhari government of Nigeria.

In a letter addressed to ElombahNews, she said:

“Last year, one of the most significant campaigns that we did was that on young persecuted Leah Sharibu who spent her Christmas in the captivity of Boko Haram.

“If you remember, I traveled all the way to the risky North Eastern Nigeria , in Dapchi village to deliver your signatures to Leah’s parents after which I travelled to Abuja to deliver the same to President Muhammadu Buhari’s office.

“Later on, we filed a law suit at the ECOWAS law courts in Abuja.

“The government of Nigeria has continued to make empty promises about releasing Leah and to date there is no any significant progress.

“Her mother whom I am constantly in touch with has asked everyone to continue praying for the safety of her daughter whose life remains to be in danger as long as she is in the  captivity Boko Haram insurgents.”

As the 2019 year begin, she called upon all to freshly share this petition demanding the release of Leah Sharibu and to keep her in your prayers.

The petition is now signed by a record 212,000 people.
