Four abducted Chibok schoolgirls have supposedly freed from the camp of the militant Islamist group Boko Haram.
Rendering to a scandalous British-Australian negotiator Stephen Davis, who had tried to deal with Boko Haram sect for the schoolgirls’ freedom, a teenage boy, also a hostage, helped girls to get out of the camp.
Some of the Chibok schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram in Chibok, Borno State, paraded in a video released by the sect.
The free girls, who are between 16 and 18, give the hope for other 200 still lost.
It is said they were hiked three weeks through jungle following the setting sun and finally arrived in a Nigerian village, looking shabby and distressed.
Davis said the girls were amazing as they first had escaped and then walked for weeks. “They are the only ones that have escaped from a Boko Haram camp,” he added.
According to Stephen Davis the girls had been said that if they run away from Boko Haram, their families would be destroyed.
More than 200 girls were abducted from their boarding-school dormitory in northeastern Nigeria by Boko Haram terrorists six months ago on April 14, 2014.
The case generated world outrage and a big campaign calling for their release, partly propelled by the hashtag #BringBackOurGirls.
The leader of Boko Haram, Shekau a few days after abduction released the video when said that he would never free girls. He claimed that they had become slaves of Boko Haram and that they would stay slaves forever
