It hurts me so much, that none of the big pastors in Nigeria says something about this young girl. Christians cannot rise up to protest, everyone is just silence expecting to see miracle happened.

My dears faith without work is death.

Christians rise up, Leah Sharibu must be freed!

Sgt bako has said it all...
Daura , PMB and others make una free Aliya Abeg...... there is nothing to hide again...

Its so painful.North really suffering this pic said it all .

Keep quite kid bokoharam is a north property.

Oh I cried, oh I cried, maybe I shed years because of my selfishness , Leah is teaching us all to stand with and in Christ in the face of adversity when those prayers are not answered yet, when things are tough, stand with your testimony, God I thank you for Leah and that you will bring her safely home in Jesus name

.... but why are muslims wicked?

not surprised, ECWA = EVANGELISING CHRIST WINNING ALL.

Dumb boko haram and their fellow fundamentalists, they have made her win more souls for Christ. They ended up promoting a religion they so much hate.

It's all fake news there's no Kidnap or Leah.

Why is it that poor people tend to believe more in religion than rich folks?



See the type of house they are living and yet they believe that one Man will rescue them



Religion ligate many Nigerians unknowingly




I hate religion fanatic's

She is my heroes, she will definitely make a heroic return. Trust my God !.

North n poverty shaa

See houses in 21st century
How could one believe that this guys has been ruling Nigeria more than anyone and also the black richest man on planet earth came from same poverty ridden region..



Buhari pls release the innocent girl
Unless u want to marry her when ur finally sent to daura and sambisa subsequently..

Actually, to those that aren't gullible, it teaches us that your God can't save her or doesn't care.

Christians have been brainwashed in a way that both misfortunes and good deeds increase that faith in an invisible sky daddy.

like every sane individual, you should be asking where is your God but you guys are asking Buhari to ensure are safety return instead. I thought your God is omnipotent, far more powerful than Buhari?

what about the Chibok girl stoned to death because she refused to accept Islam? where was your God?

if Leah was sane, she would have pretended to accept Islam for the sake of her safety.

her story is a painful one, I wish her the best.

Which home? I hope it isn't the same home as the Chibok girl?

Is this not much of an exposure security wise... I just wish someone could take this family out of that community, before BH will come for them.

"Mother: I am happy because Leah is doing the right thing. Even if they shoot Leah there, we believe that she will be with Christ Jesus."


Stupidity!


Even the pastor encouraging you will bend to worship Sango when its about death.

A Jesus that cant physically save her from where she presently is, is same you are expecting she will be with.

Outright Rubbish.

okay

....and wisdom is profitable to direct........................but I sincerely pray for her safe return!!.............Nigeria is messed up big time

Can you all see how useless CAN is. They haven't said anything about this or released a statement since other girls were released except the Christian girl. Had it been the other way we knew what would have happened. Anyway I don't blame them since Christian Association of Nigeria has turned themselves into a political group licking government asses

Looking at the woman's eyes, she has cried out blood and water...and still beam with courage. Leah will come back home safely, She didn't abandon God, so, He will make a name for Himself in the little girl.
