Another Chibok Schoolgirl Emerges with Two Children, Seven Years After Abduction

Another abducted Chibok schoolgirl emerged with two children birthed in captivity seven years after Boko Haram kidnapped her alongside over 200 others.

Hassana was one of over 200 schoolgirls abducted at a Government Secondary School in Chibok on April 14, 2014, by Boko Haram insurgents.

Few days ago, Ruth Pogu and a man said to be her husband had presented themselves to the Nigerian Army on July 28, 2021, at a location in Bama. Ruth equally emerged with two children.

In the latest case, Hassana Adamu was received by Borno State Governor, Babagana Umara Zulum, on Saturday in Gwoza, after she had presented herself to the Nigerian Army.

Hassana, alongside her two children, was handed over to Zulum by the Commander, 26 Taskforce Brigade, Brig. Gen. D.R. Dantani.

Zulum was in Gwoza from, when Hassana and her two children were presented to him.

He was in Gwoza to give humanitarian aide to the people of the town which was once the headquarters of Boko Haram caliphate.

The governor left from Gwoza to Bama, one of the renowned commercial and historical towns of Borno, where he equally undertook humanitarian activities.

The governor was few days ago in Borno North where he spent five days for humanitarian interventions.
