Rescued Chibok girl handed over to Governor, to meet President Buhari
The rescued Chibok schoolgirl, Amina Ali, was on Wednesday airlifted by Nigeria Air Force Super Puma aircraft from Damboa to Maiduguri, both in Borno State, alongside her baby and supposed husband, Mohammed Hayatu.
Prior to that, Ali and her baby were examined at the Nigerian Air Force medical facility and were found to be stable, with normal blood pressure observed.
Thereafter, she was released to the Operation LAFIYA DOLE headquarters for further investigation and handing over.
After preliminary investigation, the rescued girl and her baby have been handed over to the Borno State Governor, Alhaji Kashim Shetima, at the Government house, Maiduguri.
The handing over was done on Wednesday evening by the Acting General Officer Commanding of the 7 Division, Brigadier General Victor Ezugwu, at a brief ceremony.
It is believed that Ali will be taken to Abuja on Thursday (today) with her parents to meet with President Muhammadu Buhari.
Meanwhile, the supposed husband is undergoing further investigation at the Joint Intelligence Centre.
Hayatu is said to be getting treatment in line with Operation LAFIYA DOLE Rules of Engagement regarding insurgents who voluntarily surrender to the military.
