Leah Sharibu the Unsung Heroine

Intrepid damsel, a heroine unsung. A willing martyr with courage unrivalled. Unransomed captive with a ransom infinite. She gladly faces death with eternity in view. Like her lover before her, she chooses to be a sacrificial lamb to the slaughter. Leah Sharibu, the heroine unsung. She that chooses to mortify her passions for timeless paradise. Hardly daunted by Kalashnikovs and thunderous explosives, she inherits a world deemed abstract by unfaithful adherents.
