The theatre commander of the Joint Task Force, North East Operation Hadin Kai, Maj Gen Waidi Shuaibu, has handed over the latest rescued Chibok girl, Ihyi Abdu, to the Borno State Government.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the handover ceremony on Monday in Maiduguri, Shuaibu said her rescue brought to 19 the number of Chibok girls rescued through direct military operations.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday, we are gathered here to hand over another Chibok girl rescued during the course of military operations in Sambisa Forest. She was rescued by troops of Sector 1 of the theatre. The theatre will continue to do its best to rescue the remaining Chibok girls in captivity in line with the strategic guidance of the Chief of Defence Staff and the Chief of Army Staff,\u201d Shuaibu said.<\/p>\n

Giving details of the rescue, the acting General Officer Commanding, GOC, 7 Division, Maiduguri, Brig Gen A.G.L. Haruna, said the girl was rescued on June 23 with two children by troops during an operation within Sambisa Forest.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe is now 27 years old, Kibaku by tribe and a Muslim by faith. She is serial number 67 on the list of abducted Chibok girls published by the Federal Government in 2014.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile in captivity, she was forcefully married to one Abu Darda at Gwoza town in 2014. However, Darda who is an indigene of Plateau State, later relocated to Senegal and she later got married to other terrorists that were eventually neutralised by troops,\u201d Haruna said.<\/p>\n
