Escaped Chibok Girls Resume Studies in US

Information has it that some of escaped Chibok girls have resumed school in United states of America. The girls were relocated to US as parts of re-integration measure to enable them continue their studies.

A non-governmental organisation, Educate After Escape and some private donors will be responsible for the girls’ education. BBC reports that the escaped schoolgirls will resume in Virginia, USA.

One of the girls in an interview with BBC said, "Last Christmas in Nigeria, we were afraid to stay in church for too long because we were afraid Boko Haram might come and attack us and we didn’t go around visiting people like we usually do. This Christmas, I am really happy."

However, the remaining 219 Chibok girls may stay in Boko Haram captive till 2015 as negotiation between federal government and Boko Haram had failed to yield any fruitful result.
