New reports show that no fewer than 61 Chibok girls abducted in April 2014 had been married to Boko Haram militants while three others died during childbirth.
Eight of the over 200 abducted Chibok schoolgirls also died during Nigerian air force strikes while one other died due to an unknown cause.
This is as the 21 Chibok schoolgirls who recently regained their freedom after more than two years of captivity in the hands of Boko Haram terrorists have disclosed that they were not abused or raped during the period of their captivity in Sambisa forest in Borno State.
This is contrary to the general perception by human rights groups that most of the girls kidnapped by the Islamist militant group have been used as sex slaves.
