It is now emerging that Boko Haram terrorists mainly used abducted Chibok girls as sex slaves as troops of the 27 Brigade on Thursday rescued another abducted Chibok schoolgirl with her baby.
The girl identified as Rakiya Abubakar was found by the troops around Algarno area near Ajigin, Damboa local government area.
Damboa is one of the border towns leading to Sambisa Forest.
The spokesman of the Nigeria Army, Sani Usman, confirmed this through WhapsApp account operated by his office.
He responded to enquiries made by journalists:
“Troops of Operation LAFIYA DOLE during investigation of arrested suspected Boko Haram terrorists discovered one of the abducted Chibok School girls, Rakiya Abubakar, with her six months old baby,” he said.
“According to preliminary investigation, it was discovered she is the daughter of Abubakar Gali Mulima and Habiba Abubakar of Chibok. She further stated that she was a student of Senior Secondary School Class 3B (SS 3B), before her abduction along with her colleagues on 14th April 2014 by the Boko Haram terrorists.
“Rakiya Abubakar is presently undergoing further medical investigation and would soon be released to the Borno State Government.” Mr. Sani said.
The girl was said to have been found by a joint patrol team of soldiers and operatives of the Civilian-JTF.
This brings the number of abducted Chibok school girls so far rescued to 23.
Recall that Boko Haram terrorists on April 14, 2014, abducted nearly 300 school girls from their dormitory in Chibok town.
With another Chibok girl found with a baby, which she had in captivity, it supports the belief that Boko Haram fighters mostly used the abducted girls as sex slaves.
The first girl to be rescued, Amina Nkeki, was also found in 2016 with a baby, alongside a terrorist, she said was her husband. This apart most of the released 23 were found to be pregnant.
