Help pray for the release of a friend and others from Boko Baram captivity

Dr Solomon is the elder brother to a family friend and a lecturer at the university of Maiduguri. They were attacked by By boko haram as they went for some official assignment. The soldiers attached to them and other lecturers were killed. Upon hearing the story, his wife, who was pregnant went into forced premature labor.
My brother and Charity, his fiancee attended the University of Maiduguri and Charity who studied in that department confirmed that Dr solomon and other Christians killed in that attack were the ones who were standing for christians' interest in the department against muslim domination now he is the only one left under captivity.
Boko haram has made some unknown demands for the release of Solomon and co but it seems the government is not making effort to have them released.
The Nigerian army who are known to lie alot about these issues are trying to bury them.
The families are living in pain. Please pray along

please note that they are under gunpoint and
whatever they say is under duress

Also pray for Mrs Monica, a member of my church whose family memberes were killed. She herself was slaughtered and left for death by Boko Haram. Miraculously, The Lord saved her and she was rescued and taken to the hospital. the neck has been stitched and she has recovered and was at church today. But the whole thing affected her voice as it is now kind of... husky, more like a man. she survived together with a teenage son

I will pray also, brother.

Thanks alot brethren for your commitments. Your prayers are highly valued. May the Lord water all of you who are praying.

Praying that God's will be accomplished and others brought to the LORD during this time of stress and affliction.
