Yakubu Nkeki, head of the Abducted Chibok Girls Parents’ group, and Ayuba Alamson Chibok, a community leader in the town, also gave the same account to AFP news agency.

The girl was apparently found wandering in the forest. She is reportedly 19 years old.

Al Jazeera’s Ahmed Idris reporting from the northeastern town of Maiduguri said the girl, who was found pregnant and traumatised, is under the custody of authorities.

The young woman was apparently brought to Chibok on Tuesday night and reunited with her mother. Her father was said to have died while she was held captive.

“She was carrying a baby but I do not know whether it is a boy or girl,” Zannah said by phone from Chibok,” Lawan Zannah, secretary of the association of parents of missing Chibok girl.
