Nkeki, however, said they have not been officially contacted neither do they have details of circumstances surrounding Halima’s escape.
“I am currently on my way to meet Halima’s father to discuss with him and understand what exactly is going on. For now, we don’t know much.” Nkeki told Channels Television.
The father of the latest escapee lives in a village some 50 kilometers away from Chibok.
Attempts to reach the Media coordinator of the Operation Lafiya Dole, Colonel Ado Isa, proved futile as his phone line was switched off.
