Leah Sharibu: We want her back even if she births 10 babies – Reno Omokri
Reno Omokri, a former media aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, has reacted to reports that the only abducted Dapchi schoolgirl still in Boko Haram captivity, Leah Sharibu, was recently delivered of a second baby.
A United States-based group, US-Nigeria Law Group, had revealed in a statement that Sharibu gave birth to a second child late last year.
Recall that Sharibu was part of 110 schoolgirls of Government Girls’ Science and Technical College (GGSTC) kidnapped from her school in Dapchi, Yobe State, in February 2018. She was reported to have given birth to her first child, a boy, in January 2020.
While many of the girls have regained their freedom, Sharibu was held back for refusing to denounce her Christian faith.
However, Omokri in a tweet has called for the rescue of Sharibu, adding that she is still wanted back even if she had 10 babies.
“It is not possible for a girl that was abducted and held at gunpoint to consent to sexual intercourse, let alone marriage. Leah Sharibu is a hostage. I spoke to her father. We still want her back even if she has given birth to 10 babies. Still #FreeLeahSharibu!” he wrote.
