The trio were later airlifted by the Nigeria Air Force Super Puma aircraft from Damboa to Maiduguri for the formal handing over to the government by the army.



Mr Usman said the girl and her baby, along with her parents, would be conveyed to Abuja on Thursday to meet with President Muhammadu Buhari.
