Jennifer Samuel is an aid worker from Plateau State who was abducted by Boko Haram on December 22, 2019, in Borno State on her way to Jos for the Christmas celebration.

Jennifer Samuel told journalists in Jos:  ”While in captivity, I met with Alice who informed me that Grace Taku and Leah Sharibu are alive and fine in the forest.”

“The abductors were trying to prepare us in case they didn’t release us. They said we are going to be their slaves and that there would be sexual involvements. But we were trying to play with them psychologically.

”They were trying to tell us that in the Koran if you abduct someone to be your slave, you can have such privileges with the person.

“They were telling us that Islam is the religion that God blesses and we will be lost if we don’t convert to be Muslims.

”When they released us, they told us that we were going that God does not want us to stay there.

”At first, they were telling us to convert to Islam or be their slaves but later they decided to release us because it is part of their rules and it is in the Koran. ”So they told us that they were going to free us since God doesn’t want us to stay there.

“When the news came, it was up to five days before they released us. So we were just praying that God should intervene.

”When it was time for our release, five of us were released, two females and two males, others are still in captivity.

”I actually met Alice that was abducted two years ago, all of them need our prayers earnestly.

”We need to stand and pray for them; it is only God that can do it.

“Alice is Okay but she said she has accepted her fate since she has stayed there for two years and she said Grace and Leah are fine.

I didn’t see Leah but Alice said she is Ok. I only saw Alice.”
