Three girls who escaped a mass abduction by Boko Haram a year ago today have a powerful message to share — the jihadists won’t stop us from learning and living.
The girls who were abducted along with more than 200 of their classmates before jumping off of the trucks of their kidnappers spoke with Al-Jazeera.
The three girls are now attending college at the American University of Nigeria in Yola.
