Nigeria: Kidnapped aid worker says Muslims killed Christian girl for refusing to renounce Christ

JUL 30, 2019 3:00 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER

Leah Sharibu may be still alive, and we hope she is, but there is no doubt that the Nigerian government has done nothing about her plight or that of the persecuted Christians of that country.

“Aid Worker: Boko Haram Killed Schoolgirl for Refusing to Renounce Christ,” by Edwin Mora, Breitbart, July 25, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Jihadis from the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL)-linked Boko Haram killed a 16-year-old Christian schoolgirl in captivity for refusing to renounce her Christian faith and convert to Islam, a kidnapped aid worker claimed in a video released this week.

Grace Taku, an aid worker from the non-governmental organization (NGO) Action Against Hunger (ACF), blamed the death of the schoolgirl — Leah Sharibu — and another captive identified only as “Alice” on the Nigerian government’s failure to fight for her release. Taku herself was kidnapped along with five other ACF workers on July 18.

She also held the Nigerian government responsible for the deaths of two Red Cross workers — identified only as Hauwa and Kabura — and a different aid worker, Alice.

Taku’s comments were captured on a nearly three-minute video, which reportedly disseminated online Wednesday by the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), a breakaway Boko Haram faction.

The footage purportedly shows Taku imploring her employer, the prominent Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), and the Nigerian government to “do something” to secure their release and prevent them from suffering the same lethal fate as some of the captives, according to a transcript of the video carried by Nigeria’s Premium Times.

After highlighting the death of the two Red Cross workers, Taku beseeched, fighting to hold back her tears:

Do something to see that we are released. … I am begging on behalf of all of us here that please Nigeria should not allow such [death] to happen to us. And it also happen again with Leah [Sharibu] and Alice – because Nigeria could not do anything about them they were not released; they were also killed.

Some analysts have questioned the claim that Sharibu is dead, urging caution about jumping to conclusions….

In audio that surfaced in August 2018, Sharibu supplicated the Nigerian government, “Treat me with compassion, I am calling on the government, particularly, the President to pity me and get me out of this serious situation.”

What a blessing. She is resting in the arms of Jesus until the Great Resurrection when she will enter Heaven to live in joy forever. To be a Muslim wife is worse than death for Christian girls.

The Nigerian Government has a recent history of not helping Christians who are harassed or kidnapped by Muslims.
This happened a few times during the Obama years.
There was a group of about 30 young girls from Christian families who were kidnapped by the Boko Harem for purposes of marrying them after conversion. I think most the girls refused to convert, and were missing for months.

Remember that time Michelle Obama held a little white board with the hashtag message #BringOurGirlsHome! or something like that. That hashtag was the extent of either Obama’s involvement with the kidnapping. The Nigerian Govt. was either too incompetent or too compromised to do anything for the girls.

On Sept. 12, 2001, we should have had a complete travel ban into the United States from Muslim countries. Instead, our deep state and government did the exact opposite, and went on a blindingly expensive, deadly and ultimately useless scheme of wars and invasion, empire building, Muslim outreach and mass immigration into the West. What a failure it all is

At some point, the complete travel ban will be the only option left.

It was a success. The globalists wanted Muslims imported to help destroy US sovereignty and American liberty.

Yes. Root and branch. Islam is a pestilence.

This breaks my heart. We need to pray for them.

Living my life so far in a country as easy to have religious freedom as the U S of A, I can only hope to be so brave when the time comes for increased Christian persecution here.

But the good news is that it made the era of PDJT possible.

Yes, I'd be fine with at least a partial travel ban for all 57 OIC countries. And I hears somewhere that the state of Michigan has an observer status within the OIC, so if that is true, I would set up travel checkpoints around its borders. Of course, SCOTUS would probably unanimously overturn that, even with its current makeup, but you won't be able to say that I didn't try.

That she did. She is with Jesus, while the radical Moslems will be surprised, upon their deaths, to find out Allah looks suspiciously goatlike, with horns and a pointy tail.
