After nine years away from home, one of the victims of the mass abduction of female students at the Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, has been rescued.

A report obtained by Naija News on Monday revealed that the rescued, now 26-year-old, was found pregnant. The report confirmed her name to be Hauwa Maltha, with serial number two on the list of secondary school girls abducted by Boko Haram terrorists in Chibok on April 14, 2014.

It was gathered that she was rescued by the troops of the Nigerian Army on April 21, 2023, along with her three-year-old baby, during the troops’ operations in the Lagara area of Borno State.

Details in the report by Leadership claimed that while in captivity, Maltha, a Kibaku tribe in the Chibok Local Government Area of Borno State, got married in Gulukos to one Salman, a cameraman to the late terrorist leader, Ibrahim Shekau.

The report revealed further that Salman died in Lake Chad, and after his death, Maltha remarried one Mallam Muhammad in Gobara and had two children with him.
