The President on Tuesday spoke with Mrs Rebecca Sharibu, the mother of the Dapchi Secondary schoolgirl, Leah, who had been kidnapped by Boko Haram terrorists.
Buhari put the call through after receiving the Ultimatum given by the Insurgency group to the Federal government stating that Leah Sharibu would be killed if the government fails to come to terms with their demands by October 14th.

Meanwhile, the president while consoling the Sharibu’s family, assured her mother that his administration will do everything it would take to bring her daughter back home.
“I convey my emotion, the strong commitment of my administration and the solidarity of all Nigerians to you and your family as we will do our best to bring your daughter home in peace and safety,” President Buhari told her.
He however assured the mother that his heart was with her family, as that of the entire nation which continues to pray for the safe return of “our daughter, Leah.”
