ICC Note: After her rescue from the Sambisa Forest where Boko Haram had held her captive, details are beginning to emerge about the first Chibok girl to return home after two years gone. Amina Ali us is one of nearly 300 girls that Boko Haram abducted in April 2014 from a government school in Chibok Local Government Area (LGA) in Borno State, Nigeria. Although the majority of the Chibok girls come from Christian families, Amina is a Muslim who comes from a town of 30,000 with mostly Christians. Witnesses describe her reunion with her mother as emotional and filled with joyful tears.

5/19/16 Chibok, Nigeria (BBC) – Amina Ali Nkeki was found on Tuesday in the Sambisa Forest area of north-east Nigeria more than two years after she was kidnapped from a school in Chibok by the Islamist militant group Boko Haram.

She is the first of the 219 schoolgirls to be freed since the immediate aftermath of their capture.

She is from Mbalala, which is about 10km (6 miles) from Chibok.

Journalist Samson Aboku, who is from Mbalala, says that it is a mostly Christian town of approximately 30,000 people, but Amina is a Muslim.
