The Nigerian Army has said it found and rescued two women who were part of the female students abducted by Boko Haram terrorists from Government Girls Secondary School in Chibiok, Borno State.
In a statement on Wednesday, the army disclosed that troops of 202 battalion during clearance operations on 25 July 2022 intercepted four abducted women including two girls.
According to the statement, the intercepted Chibok girls and their children are currently in a military medical facility.
Recall that, on the night of the attack in April 2014, 276 female students mostly Christians aged from 16 to 18 were kidnapped by Boko Haram from the Government Girls Secondary School at the town of Chibok, Borno State.
The outrageous event has stirred global outcry with hopes being raised that the over 200 remaining girls might be released, however there are fears that some girls might have already died while in captivity.
