Protest for Leah: Tuesday 19 February
|
Leah Sharibu was named Person of the Year 2018 by two Nigerian newspapers, The Nation and The Guardian, proving that although Boko Haram thinks it has silenced and humiliated her, her testimony speaks louder every day, inspiring all who hear it.
We have no update on Leah since the one we shared in November. Although Leah’s life, along with that of humanitarian worker Alice Ngaddah, has been spared, Boko Haram say they are keeping both women as ‘slaves for life’. We want to make sure those in power in Nigeria know that we’ve not forgotten Leah or Alice, so on 19 February, we’ll be outside the Nigerian High Commission in London all day with the message, ‘Still here. Still waiting for action’. Find out more details Not able to travel to London? Join us on Facebook at 11am on 19 February. Please ask your church to pray for Leah using these downloadable prayer points. Every church in Leah's denomination, ECWA, will be praying on Sunday 17 February specifically for the release of Leah, Alice and all of Boko Haram’s captives. |
