ICON had a Busy and Productive Month of August

Leah Sharibu was captured by Boko Haram three years ago on February 19th, 2018, and was denied her release due to her faith. The executive director of the International Committee on Nigeria (ICON), Kyle Abts, shared, “The latest verified information that she was still alive was earlier in the year 2020 when a released captive stated that she was still in captivity. There were rumors that she was forced to marry a Boko Haram leader and had given birth to a baby boy, but this was not verified by freed captive(s). Leah’s family are thankful that she was shown to be alive but want the government to work toward her release.
