 At a news conference conducted on Tuesday at the Command-and-Control Centre Maimalari Cantonment in Maiduguri, Mariam Dauda and Hauwa Joseph described their 8-year experience in the forest and how they were eventually rescued along with their infants.

Eight years have passed since 276 schoolgirls were kidnapped by Boko Haram militants from the Government Girls Secondary School in Chibok, Borno state.

The survivors stated that the Nigerian military had recently executed their spouses and that they had both given birth to children for the Boko Haram commanders they had been married off to for years.

Mary, who is now Mariam, responded to a news reporter's query by saying, "Yes, I know him; I used to see the late Abubakar Shehau.

She continued, “Yes, there are still other Chibok girls in the Sambisa Forest. They also have been married, at least more than 20 are still there,” she began to mention their names one after the other.

“I was 18 years old when they abducted us and I converted to Islam, I was Christian but they converted us to Islam and married us off.
