From Captivity to Campus: 12 Chibok Girls Near Graduation
12 survivors of the 2014 Chibok abduction will graduate from AUN, showcasing resilience, hope, and the power of education.
More than a decade after their abduction shook the world, 12 survivors of the Chibok school attack are on the verge of graduating from the American University of Nigeria.
The students, taken in 2014 from Government Girls Secondary School Chibok, have turned a painful chapter into a story of resilience and achievement.
AUN President Dewayne Frazier said their success represents far more than academic progress.
“Their journey from captivity to a university degree has captured worldwide attention as a victory over adversity,” he said, describing it as a testament to hope and human strength.
He emphasised that the graduates embody the transformative power of education.
“These graduates now stand as beacons of light… education is the most proven tool for healing and transformation,” Frazier added.
The university also acknowledged the support of the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs, which funded their studies.
The Chibok abduction on April 14, 2014, saw 276 girls taken by insurgents. While dozens escaped or have been rescued over the years, more than 80 are still unaccounted for.
