Sarah Luka 2nd Chibokgirl Rescued
The Nigerian Army has confirmed the rescue of another of the over 200 girls abducted in Chibok Local Government of Borno State over two years ago.
This is coming barely a day after Amina Ali, also one of the abducted girls, was rescued.
The Acting Director, Army Public Relations, Col. Sani Usman, confirmed the rescue to our correspondent via a text message.
It was gathered that there was a major military operation in a part of the area, but it is not clear if this rescue is a fallout of the said exercise.

SaharaReporters has learned that a second Chibok girl abducted by Boko Haram has been rescued this evening.
SaharaReporters confirmed this development with the Army Spokesman Colonel SK Usman by phone. However Mr. Usman could not provide further details at the time of conversation.
This rescue comes hours after Amina Ali, the first Chibok girl recused since the 2014 mass abduction of 219 school girls, met with President Muhammadu Buhari at the presidential villa.
A statement distributed by PR Nigeria disclosed that Mr. Usman would provide the public with more details once the military was able to confirm.
Second rescued Chibok girl is Sarah Luka, a junior secondary school student from Chibok.
