Chibok Girls Abduction: Some Girls want to Return to Their Captors – IGP

The Inspector General Police, Usman Alkali-Baba has revealed that some of the abducted Chibok girls who recently returned and reunited with their families have expressed willingness to return to their captors.

The IGP who expressed this while speaking on the status of internal security at the weekly briefings coordinated by the Presidential Media Team in Abuja, said some of the abducted girls, especially those who were forced into marriage and had children for their captors only returned to see their families.

Alkali-Baba say this may be because these girls have been assimilated or acclimatized with the situation and indoctrinated and had become part and parcel of those who have abducted them.

Recall, suspected Boko Haram terrorists abducted 270 Chibok girls from Chibok town, Borno State in 2014, but over 100 have since been freed or managed to escape.
