According to DAILY POST, about 80 students of the Government Girls’ Secondary School, Chibok Local Government Area of Borno State, abducted by the Boko Haram insurgents on Monday have been rescued by soldiers, vigilantes and hunters.
The terrorists who abducted the girls are said to have gotten stuck in the bush while they were trying to crossover some muddy area between Chibok and Askira/Uba, a few of the girls then used the opportunity to jump out and escape.
A parent of one of the rescued students who spoke to correspondents said , "They were scattered in the bush when the vigilante and local hunters found them. Some of them were wounded, some were with fracture, which I believe was as a result of jumping from the high vehicle, but we are happy that our children have been rescued.
"Now we are praying for those who are still with the Boko Haram; our prayer is that every father will have his child back.
The parent also said that his daughter Hajara was sound and healthy but weak. Speaking further he said, "our children told us that when they started running, the insurgents didn’t shoot them. They allowed those who could run to go but those who could not run either as a result of fear or wound are still with them in the bush. My daughter said the abductors were over one hundred and that the girls were 243; she said the insurgents asked them to count themselves".
