Leah Sharibu's father, Nathan Sharibu, has alleged that the Federal Government and online journalist, Ahmed Salkida know his daughter's whereabouts amidst reports that she has become a mother, after being married to a Boko Haram Commander.
Leah Sharibu is the teenage Christian girl, who was abducted by Boko Haram in Dapchi. Although she was arrested alongside other schoolgirls, the sect elected to release the other girls except her.

It was gathered that the sect had urged her to convert to Islam in order for her to be released but she refused, a development that angered the insurgents.


Sharibu in an exclusive chat with The PUNCH said despite the latest revelation about his daughter, he remained unfazed.
"If that is the will of God, then, I receive it with all pleasure"


He, however, said he was saddened about the alleged conspiracy over his daughter's whereabouts, noting that neither the Federal Government nor Ahmad Salkida could claim not to know the whereabouts of Leah.


"There are no qualms. I have been receiving lots of calls from last night but all I can say is that it is well. If that is the will of God, it is well. Whatever they have done I receive it with all pleasure. The government knows of Leah's whereabouts. I repeat it, the government knows Leah's whereabouts, more or less Ahmed Salkida. The government knows about her whereabouts. But whatever it is, I don't have anything more to say, than to receive it (the condition of Leah) with all pleasure."


Ahmed Salkida, a journalist, had claimed that Leah Sharibu, one of the abducted Dapchi Schoolgirls still under the captivity of the group, is now a mother.
