Freedom at last! 42 Chibok girls graduate

42 girls out of the first 56 girls who escaped Boko Haram captivity have graduated from secondary school on Tuesday.

The girls were sponsored to attend two private schools by the Borno State Government and a non-profit humanitarian organization, Girl Child Concern.

The schools are the Bethel International Christian Academy for Christian students and Ulul-Albab Science Secondary School for Muslim students in the Katsina and Plateau states respectively.

Governor Kashim Shettima attended the graduation ceremony where there were 34 other girls who are yet to graduate.
