Can Chibok girls truly be held In Gwazo?

              

If what this woman said is true, then there may be some real hope that kidnapped Chibok girls will regain there freedom soon,as the Nigeria soldiers continues its liberation efforts towards captured territories.

56 years old Mbutu Papka who was kidnapped in July 2014 and held by Boko Haram  for eight months said the Chibok girls are kept in a compound in Gwazo under tight security

Papka said she had been held in the same location as the Chibok girls, after she was transferred from  Mdita a remote village close to Sambisa forest where she was held for five months before been returned to Gwazo

She said even the security Guard are only allowed into the compound to deliver food,water and other supplies.

Mbutu who was released by Boko Haram said the Chibok girl were housed adjacent to the compound she was kept, people around told her that the girls that has generated international attention,were in a fortified compound closer to them,access was restricted,the girl did their cooking and chore themselves.

“When we got to Gwoza, things changed because there were facilities there and the place was 10 times better than Mdita. We had a normal life in Gwoza, except the trauma of living in captivity. Whatever we wanted to eat, they were provided. They would bring water, firewood, etc., and leave them outside,” she explained.

There was a Redeemed Christian Church of God pastor who was killed during the attack on our village, and his wife was abducted with us. She died at Mdita due to the condition of the place and the death of her husband,”

The pastor’s wife, she explained, had diabetes and, before her abduction, had been on a special diet which could not be provided by the insurgents. Papka said she and the other women were not raped or assaulted, though she could not speak for the Chibok girls because nobody was allowed to see or interact with them. She also said that the Boko Haram men lived with their wives and children in the Gwoza camp, but kept away from others and cooked their own meals.

Papka was released 15th March after 3 months in Gwazo,taken on a motocycle back to her village where she was adopted,"The ride, however, was not free. “I was asked to pay N8,000 for the motorcycle ride, which I collected from my family,” she stated.
