Presidential spokesman, Femi Adesina, confirmed this to the State House correspondents in Abuja on Wednesday, May 17.

Adesina said Acting President Yemi Osinbajo announced the girl's escape during the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting.

The girl is said to have been brought to Abuja to join her colleagues who were recently rescued from the terror group.

This is coming days after 82 of the kidnapped girls were released to the Federal  Government - they were freed on May 6, 2017 - in exchange for some Boko Haram prisoners.
