The girl who was arrested while attempting to blow herself up in northern Cameroon is not among the 276 schoolgirls abducted from Chibok community in Borno state.

According to the BBC, a Nigerian senator disclosed this but refused to disclose the identity of the girl, who was said to be heavily drugged at the time of her arrest.

She had told investigators that she was one of the Chibok schoolgirls.

Raymond Roksdo, a local government administrator in Cameroon, had said the girl’s claim would be verified by Nigerian authorities.
