Ahmed Salkida, the journalist who has access to Boko Haram and also once a mediator between the insurgents and the Nigerian government, has confirmed that Leah Sharibu is now a mother. In his tweet, Salkida said that the Christian girl the insurgents refused releasing alongside her schoolmates for refusing to convert to Islam is now a mother. He however disclosed that he doesn’t know the gender of the baby.

He tweeted;

Why, I wonder, do we pretend that leaving Leah behind won’t result in pregnancy? Since the terror group announced condemning her to slavery, is there any step or collective focus on preventing similar occurrences? She’s a mother, but I don’t know about the gender of the baby.
