Escaped Chibok Girl Narrates Her Ordeal, Say That Chibok Girls Are Alive; Many Impregnated, Carrying VVF, Other Diseases
According to Vanguard, There were indications weekend that many of the 200 girls of the Government Secondary School, Chibok abducted in April 2014, are alive and holed up in the Lake Chad region of the North-East epicentre of the battle to dislodge Boko Haram terrorists from Nigeria.
Sources disclosed to Saturday Vanguard that the girls who were relocated from the initial Sambisa Camps of the terrorists, following unrelenting bombardments by air and land operations, have been relocated to Lake Chad area with some of the girls spread along border communities.
It was gathered that about two weeks ago, one of the abducted girls who was formerly kept in a Sambisa forest camp, escaped from the hands of the abductors and ran into the hands of some Fulani herdsmen. It was the Fulani herdsmen having confirmed that the girl was a Chibok girl, who assisted her to get to the Baga military base of the multi-national Joint Task Force.
At the Baga base, the escapee girl was said to have confessed that many of them were forcefully married to the terrorists who not only impregnated them but infected some of them with different diseases. On her part, she was not only impregnated, but she got the VVF disease from one of the terrorists.
According to the escapee, at the camp where she escaped from there were about 60 of the girls while others were shared and moved to border communities. Narrating more tales of woes on what the Chibok girls went through and are still going through in the hands of the terrorists, the source said though the Chibok girl had just put to bed, the VVF (Vesicant Virginal Fistula) disease with which she was infected by the terrorist had made her uncomfortable hence her decision to flee to seek for medical help, as she was repeatedly passing solid waste uncontrollably.
Continuing, the source said, “When the Fulani herdsman saw the girl in the bush and questioned her about her mission, she narrated her experience, which made the herdsman to take her to the soldiers in that area. With her escape, there are now 59 of the girls left in her camp.”
Emphasizing that almost all of the girls have been married out to the Boko Harram terrorists while quite a number of them have delivered babies, the escapee told security agencies that the girls were always moved from place to place in the Sambisa forest during the bombardments but that when the heat was too much, they were all moved out of the forest.
The escapee further disclosed to security agencies that Boko Haram terrorists have been seriously weakened and are now moving from place to place aimlessly like lost sheep, planting mines and IEDs (improvised explosive devices) which some security forces have mistakenly fallen prey to.
“All of us were forced to become Muslims but kept in camps far from each other”, she revealed. “You can only see and recognize those in your camp as any of us who refused being Islamized was either beheaded or shot at point blank range.”
She revealed further that the camps where the Chibok girls are now kept are in Kangoora, Mallam Fatori, Damasak, Tunbun Kaka and Tumbum Gira. Many of these towns are located in the border communities around Lake Chad with some in Nigeria and others in Chad.

Davido shuns Wizkid’s rants, unveils second Puma collection
Davido, the Afrobeats star, has unveiled his second collection with sportswear giant Puma at the brand’s flagship store in New York.
The partnership, announced last year, has yielded two successful collections — the first in April — with the latest featuring sportswear items such as t-shirts, sneakers, jackets, and bags.
At the launch event, hosted by Rolling Stone reporter Mankaprr Conteh, Davido shared his humble beginnings, saying his initial goal was to have his music played on Nigerian radio.
On the second collection, the singer said: “You know the first collection, we were just testing the waters. Because it was a risk for them. Yes, people love my music, but it is different from people love your music and people buy your products”.
The development comes at about the same time when Wizkid reignited their rift — after Davido announced his first single of 2024.
The ‘Made In Lagos’ hitmaker also taunted Ademola Adeleke, Davido’s uncle who is governor of Osun state.
Responding to one of Davido’s supporters, Wizkid claimed he declined the deal Puma offered him because “they could no longer afford to pay me”.
”U idiot! I turned down Puma cos they could no longer afford to pay me cos I wanted more! Don’t need dat! Way bigger than every artiste u just mentioned! Not jealous ! love em all…With ur dirty ass shirt! Idiot!” Wizkid wrote on X.
Wizkid argued that rejecting the offer showed he was bigger than the ‘Unavailable’ hitmaker.
Davido, who has been active on social media, appeared to have ignored Wizkid, with the former failing to respond to the latter’s tweets.

In May, a fight ensued between Davido and Wizkid on X after the ‘Ojuelegba’ hitmaker mocked him and Don Jazzy, the Mavin Records head honcho.
Wizkid referred to Don Jazzy as an “influencer” while taunting Davido with a video of him on his knees, pleading and crying after a fan asked him to release new music.
The singer’s posts attracted criticism from a segment of social media users, including celebrities.
Davido also retaliated, labeling Wizkid’s career as “dead”.

A fan of Davido, however, fired back, accusing Wizkid of chasing clout using the name of the ‘Assurance’ hitmaker.
The user wrote: “So if you no beef @davido your song won’t sell??” Responding, Wizkid said: “I don’t beef wack niggas! We all know he’s wack! No talent! 🦅”

He continued: “80 trash ! We got 80 albums for any song y’all drop! P***y boys! ❤️🦅.”
Davido, who is also active on social media, appeared to have ignored Wizkid, with the former failing to respond to the latter’s tweets.
