Troops of 114 Task Force Battalion, Bita in Borno State have rescued another abducted Chibok schoolgirl.

While in captivity, Hauwa got married in Gulukos to one Salman, a cameraman to the late terrorists’ leader, Shekau. Salman later died in Lake Chad. Thereafter, Hauwa Maltha got married off again to one Mallam Muhammad in Gobara and had two children for him. Mallam Muhammad, her second husband was also killed in Ukuba terrorists’ enclave in Sambisa Forest during clashes between JAS/ISWAP.
