It has been confirmed that the
Federal Government has moved the Chibok girl Susan Ishaya, abandoned by
Boko Haram to Abuja for further treatment.
Susan was moved from the
Police hospital Yola on Saturday to an undisclosed location where she is
now receiving treatment in Abuja.
Susan’s identity is yet to be
confirmed or her parents identified since the parents who travelled to
Yola to meet with her along with the Vice Principal of the Government
Girls Secondary School,
Chibok were unable to see her because she was
flown out without their knowledge.
Director of publicity, Kibaku
Area Development Association (KADA) Dr. Manasseh Allen stated this
yesterday in Abuja, during the usual gathering of the #BringBackOurGirls
advocacy.
He said that it will be important to Susan’s recovery if she is united with her parents and not hidden away from them.
“She has been moved by
security agencies to Abuja from Yola since yesterday, her location has
not been disclosed to us, they are working on her medical condition
first before they can acquire any information from her.
“They have found out that she is still incoherent, she keeps
repeating herself and at times she keeps repeating statements which
means that we cannot depend on her words for now. But our leaders are
in touch with the authorities and government.
As I speak to you right
now there are people on standby waiting on the military authorities so
that they can have access to Susan and ensure that proper medical
attention is given to her before before we can go on with whatever can
come after.
“No single parent has made any contact with her, as I’m speaking to
you, no one can say categorically that she is from Chibok because no
one is yet to meet her.
“My point of concern is that
in every rehabilitation family is essential even to the healing process
medically, so it is essential that Susan is reunited with her family as
soon as possible so that the process of her psychological and
psychosocial healing is complete,” he said.
