One of the female students, who was abducted by the Boko Haram sect from Government Secondary School, Chibok in Borno State last April, has been found by the police in Mubi, Adamawa State.
According to the Chairman of the Chibok community in Abuja, Hosea Tsambido, , the young girl – Susanna Hauwa Ishaya – was picked up at Kwarihi village near Biu in Borno State after being thrown out of a moving Volkswagen Golf car on Wednesday.
She allegedly wandered in the bush for two days before she was rescued by villagers.
He disclosed this while speaking at the during the usual gathering of members of the #BringBackOurGirls advocacy, who have been protesting the abduction of over 200 girls from the Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok.
“One of the girls was ferried in a Volkswagen golf and thrown into the bush about two days ago and she wandered into the village of Kwarihi, near Mubi.
“From there they called one of the parents to take care of her in Kwarihi. They are taking her to Yola.
“When she was asked, she gave her name as Susanna Ishaya but right now we are not sure if it is her real name until she is really treated because the people that saw her said she is both mentally and phsycally sick and has been taken to the hospital.
“We believe that she was probably abandoned by Boko Haram because of her health.” he disclosed.
He explained that the abandoned girl was reported to be critically ill and is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital.
Also, tweeting from her twitter handle @obyezeks last night, Ezekwesili announced the news of Susan’s rescue.
She wrote: “After the emotional upheaval of (Tuesday’s) dashed hopes, today came with the factual return of one of our 219 #ChibokGirls. She’s in trauma.
“One #ChibokGirl, miraculously found in a bush by locals and returned today, is confirmed by Chibok parents with her in Yola. Incredible!
“It is hard to comprehend the return of Susan who is yet incoherent. The locals that found her took her to Mubi Police and now moved to Yola.
“The eternal optimist that I am makes me see the return of Susan as a good sign for the rest of our 219 Chibok daughters. They shall return!!
“One hopes that our security/military would approach Susan’s return in a way that helps us learn more in the next couple of days.”
