Legit.ng gathers that Grace called on the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN ) and Action Against Hunger, an International non-governmental organisation working in Borno state, to rescue her before she is “killed like other abductees like Alice and Leah Sharibu”.
Mrs Rebecca said: "No matter how long it takes, my hope is still alive that my daughter will come back alive from Boko Haram. I still look forward to that day and I am confident that she will return.
“I am bothered by the recent silence about my daughter’s case, but I still want to cry to the President. I want our President Buhari to know that my eyes are still wet with tears over my daughter’s abduction. I will continue to cry to him, until my daughter returns to me.
She also appealed to Boko Haram to release her daughter, saying Leah has not done anything to deserve what she is going through.
Mrs Sharibu said: “I also want to still appeal to the people that are holding my daughter to please have mercy on her and release her without any condition. She does not know anything. What has she done to deserve what she is going through?”

Legit.ng previously reported that anxiety spread across Nigeria on Thursday, July 25, following a trending video that had some humanitarian aid workers, including one Grace Taku, abducted by the Boko Haram sect on July 18.
In the video, Grace was seen begging the Nigerian government to assist in facilitating their release from the Boko Haram enclave. She then added that Leah Sharibu, one of the Dapchi schoolgirls that was kidnapped by the terrorists, had been killed.
According to her, Leah was killed because the federal government could not ‘do something’.
