The first of the
Chibok girls to make it home after being released by her Boko Haram captors spent
her first night in freedom tossing and turning and screaming “They will kill
me! They will kill me!”
So says Reverend
Enoch Mark, who stayed up through Thursday night with the traumatized young
woman. She appears to be the daughter of a Chadian carpenter who moved to the
town of Chibok many years ago, Associated press reported yesterday.
She is the first of
219 girls held in captivity for more than five months to be released and to
find her way home.
Some 276 female
students were abducted by Boko Haram from the Government Secondary School,
Chibok on April 14. Fifty-seven escaped by themselves that night or the
following day-some by jumping from the open-baked trucks that transported them
and clinging to branches of low-hanging trees.
The first
appearance of a Chibok abductee could inspire hope, said Mark. The Church of
the Brethren pastor who stayed with the young woman Thursday night.
