Fulfill your promise, save my daughter - Leah Sharibu's mother tells Buhari

- Rebecca Sharibu, the mother of the only girl remaining girl in the captivity of Boko Haram, has appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari

- Mrs Sharibu asked the president to fulfill his words that he would ensure the release of her daughter

- The grieving mother said Tuesday, February 19, will make it a year since her daughter has been abducted

Rebecca, the mother of Leah Sharibu, the only girl remaining of the abducted Dapachi school girls by Boko Haram, has appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to the promise he made to her that her daughter will be released.

Mrs Rebecca Sharibu said that by Tuesday, February 19, it will be a year since her daughter had been in the captivity of the insurgent group, Vanguard reports.

She therefore begged the president to make sure her daughter is released before the said date so does not remain with her insurgent group for a year.

Mrs Sharibu was emotional while she addressed journalists in Abuja on Saturday, February 9, as she made her appeal to the president in Hausa, while reliving how Buhari promised her of Leah Sharbu’s release.

She said: “I have come before you and the federal government to plead that you don’t forget Leah.

“The president spoke with me on phone and encouraged me not to worry, and with the assurance that my daughter will be released.

“Leah is just 15 years old. The beauty of a promise is in its fulfilment. Please save my daughter. I plead with you to help me.”

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari.
