Usman Alkali-Baba, the Inspector General of Police, has disclosed that some of the kidnapped Chibok girls who have just Rescued and been reunited with their families have expressed a desire to go back to their kidnappers.

Some of the girls who were kidnapped, particularly those who were forced into marriage and bore children for their captors, according to IGP Baba, only came back to meet their family.

“The issue of the Chibok girls, as you know, they are coming out one by one and gradually,” he stated. They will occasionally openly admit that they have come to see their parents and that they wish to return.

Therefore, it is possible that they have been indoctrinated, integrated, or otherwise made to feel at home and have joined the people who kidnapped them.

“But as I am saying, it is a continuous effort, and even last month, you saw a Chibok girl coming out with two or three children and saying she only came to greet her parents and she wants to go back, as I am sure you have noticed. As a result, there is yet hope.
