A CHIBOK SCHOOLGIRL KIDNAPPED BY BOKO HARAM HAS BEEN FOUND IN NIGERIA
A Nigerian schoolgirl abducted by Boko Haram has been found almost four years since the extremist militant group’s mass kidnapping from a boarding school in Borno state’s Chibok.
Salomi Pogu was found in near Pulka village in Borno with another young woman and her child, according to a statement from Nigerian military official, Col. Onyema Nwachukwu. the Associated Press reports.
Her name was on a government list of girls who were kidnapped in the town of Chibok, the Associated Press reports.
In April 2014, Boko Haram abducted 276 schoolgirls from the Chibok Government Secondary School. The kidnapping sparked international outcry, launching the #BringBackOurGirls campaign and drawing attention to the thousands held captive by the militant group, which is based in northeastern Nigeria.
