On Sunday (Aug 14), Boko Haram released a video apparently showing footage of some the other missing Chibok girls.
“We want to send this message first to the parents of these girls for them to know that these girls are still with us, some of them, and secondly they should tell the Federal Government of Nigeria, to with immediate effect, release our imprisoned brothers”. “They would give us a regular allowance of 5,000 naira and better food if we married them”, said Aisha who was so intrigued by the prospect that she asked her then-husband for a divorce, which he granted.
– Three persons were declared wanted by military authorities in connection with Boko Haram terrorists. “Why declaring me wanted?” she asked.
The Boko Haram insurgency has raged on in Nigeria’s northeast for about seven years now.
More than 200 girls were kidnapped from a school in Chibok in April 2014.
During the interview she only lifted her gaze from the floor once to breastfeed her daughter when the baby was brought into the room, Reuters reports.

“I think about them a lot – I would tell them to be hopeful and prayerful”, Ali said. “In the same way God rescued me, he will also rescue them”.
