Onyeka Onwenu: Watch as singer breaks down in tears as she pleads for Leah Shuaibu's release

Onyeka Onwenu cries out as she appeals to President Buhari to help secure Leah Shuaibu's release from Boko Haram.

Onyeka Onwenu has broken her silence as she shed tears over the government's inability to secure the release of Leah Shauibu from the hands of Boko Haram.

In a three minutes video, the famous singer is seen pleading with President Buhari to use all means possible to help rescue Leah and other people held hostage by the dreaded terrorist group.

"I need you to know that there is a fifteen-year-old girl named Leah Shuiabu, she was abducted on February 19, 2018, by Boko Haram. They offered her her freedom if she would convert to Islam but she choose to stay faithful to her Lord, Jesus Christ. I urge to use every influence, every avenue on Boko Haram to release Leah Shuaibu and every person, man, woman, and child who is under their captivity," she said.

 

Maybe Onyeka Onwenu's video will touch the hearts of those in charge of securing the release of Leah and speed the process up. Onyeka Onwenu might have been soft in her approach in airing her views over the government of the day's approach towards handling situations in the country, some other celebrities haven't been so easy on them.
