The 21 freed Chibok schoolgirls were on Thursday sighted at the International Airport, Yola, Adamawa State, going home for the Christmas season. This is just as rumours that the girls were a new set of rescued Chibok schoolgirls went viral on the media. The reports (not The PUNCH) had claimed that the girls were being taken from Adamawa to Abuja to see President Muhammadu Buhari. The acting Army Director of Public Relations, Brig. Gen.

He said, “It is not true that the army made a fresh rescue of 21 Chibok girls. The girls sighted were the former rescued 21 girls and they were heading home for Christmas.” Twenty-one of the kidnapped girls were released on October 13, 2016, in a deal brokered by the International Committee of Red Cross and the Swiss government
